Hi Everyone,
We hope everyone is safe and weathering these ongoing storms in a good way.
CSA share distribution resumes this Saturday, July 10th. Members pick up shares on Saturdays between 2:30 and 5:30 at Genesis of Ann Arbor (Temple Beth Emeth/St Clare’s Episcopal Church) 2309 Packard Ann Arbor, MI. We will be in the front circle drive, and looking forward to seeing everybody.
· This week’s shares include (Cooking Tips and Recipes posted separately)
· Lacinato Kale, Red (Purple) Curly Kale, and Green Curly Kale – 1 bunch of each from our farm
· Fennel Bulb – from Cinzori Farm of Ceresco
· Pattypan and Zephyr Summer Squash mix – 1 quart from Cinzori Farm of Ceresco
· Red Cabbage – 1 head from Cinzori Farm of Ceresco
· Snow Pea Shoots – 1 packaged from Garden Works of Ann Arbor *Note the grower is reporting they are unsure if the shoots will be ready for us by Saturday, the item is tentative and will be included next week if not available this week.
Medium shares will receive an extra fennel, extra quart of summer squash and extra head of red cabbage
Looking ahead – Thai Basil, garlic scapes, kohlrabi, and green onions will be included from our farm next week. We will rotate varietal basils each week starting next week. The new potatoes are not ready yet, but we are expecting awesomeness when they are. The first variety of garlic to harvest any day now will be the Montana Giant variety. It will be included in the shares the week after next, and then a different variety of garlic will be rotated each week after. We will continue to include seasonally changing varieties of other vegetables from Cinzori Farm weekly as well as microgreens from Gardenworks every other week.
Thank you for your ongoing support and for sharing the joy of the community supported agriculture membership – it makes a big difference in our world and is deeply acknowledged.
Warm Regards,
Adam and the Country Valley Farm Team
