Salamander Springs Farm/Permaculture Organics

We are sending our CSA members each an email with this blog posting to let you know where you are in using your CSA share for this season!  It is the peak of the season, a good time for putting food by.  A couple of you have been using your CSA share well for that; we want to encourage the rest of you to take your share while the produce is abundant!  Sweet potatoes, winter squash & pumpkins are the bigger fall crops still to come, along with fall greens & root crops like carrots & beets.  Produce that is abundant now, like beans, summer squash, cucumbers, potatoes and tomatoes, will likely be declining by then.  As you know, last year we posted a blog here each week including recipes & info on how to to process, freeze, dry, can & store the abundant produce of the season.  You also can find good info online on ways to make to summer's harvest feed you through the winter.   Look at our CSA blog postings for this time of the season last year (http://www.localharvest.org/blog/5606/)

Faye has tallied up your market takings for the season so far, so I will send you each an email to let you know how much you have left to use for the remaining 9 weeks of the season.    I'll include an average weekly amount you could "spend" to use as a guide, but use the remainder of your share in whatever way you would like!

Bid a fond farewell to our WWOOFers Franzi and Lara this their last week at the market!  We will miss them dearly.

See you Tuesday!
