This was our first year going with Clover Road for a CSA share. We were so happy with our choice! There were so many goodies each week. With a young family, we appreciated the large amount of traditional veggies - corn, cucumbers, tomatoes, onions, zucchini, potatoes, and peppers, but we also enjoyed the more unique choices and herbs. When the box included baked goods, we were impressed with the taste and quality. When we inadvertently grabbed only half of our share one week, they did a home delivery of our remaining veggies! Clover Road CSA has been a wonderful experience for our family.

We have been members of the Clover Road CSA for two years now and while last year was an especially bad year (due to weather and personal reasons) the previous year was nothing but bumper crops.

Kathy, Ron, and the rest of the gang are wonderful people. To be honest, while we have always enjoyed the quality of the produce it's the quality of the people that I am most impressed with. My family, including small children, has a wonderful relationship with the people who grow our food. In fact my oldest son has already started asking when we get to see Kathy and Ron again!

I am in Kent, NY and I also felt the crunch from the weather.

2010 we harvested 339.3 tons of hay. 2011 we harvested 280 tons of hay. That is a 17% loss due to the weather conditions of very wet spring and then very dry summer. I re-planted our own garden twice only to get about 1/2 the produce we should have. I thank the stars we did not have it as bad as places like Binghamton, NY

Conditions such as bad weather would affect your production quantities beyond your control. Mother natures unforeseen circumstances were felt all over the Eastern USA. In some areas it destroyed entire farms.

This just one of many unforeseen perils of what we face in Agriculture on a yearly basis.

Sorry to hear about your losses.

Here's to a great year next year!

Kathy, I gave you and Diane 4 stars because I really liked hearing about your farm, all the photos were great and all the good things you are doing, when we met at the NOFA-NY CSA event in Rochester . I know that next year will be your banner year for sure.
