Thanks to everyone who came out for the Harvest Dinner on Saturday night! We had a great time pressing cider, listening to Old Cold Tater, decorating pumpkins and running the hay bale obstacle course. Though the Harvest Dinner is behind us now, there are still 3 weeks left for the CSA. While the summer crops were finally finished off by the frost, there are plenty of exciting fall storage crops coming up, so don't miss out! The last regular season share pick-up will be Friday November 8th.
If the thought of the season ending in three short weeks has got you worried about veggie withdrawal, then sign up for our Thanksgiving Share, which is distributed Monday November 25th, 2 - 6pm. Vegetable shares include 40 pounds of storage crops, like butternut squash, potatoes, onions, carrots, beets, sweet potatoes, cabbage, celeriac and parsnips. We'll include recipes and tips on extending the shelf life of your vegetables so you can enjoy them well into the winter months. Get your order form in as soon as possible to ensure you get a share. If you are planning to order pies or cranberries, the deadline is November 1st. In addition to the Thanksgiving Share, take advantage of the fall sale going on in the Dairy Store. See below for details:
