Farm News
Tonight we went to Back to School night at the middle school and school starts Wednesday. I’m sure many of our CSA families are also getting ready for the start of school this week. I’m feeling pretty good about the timing of our summer carrots and sweet pepper crop- the kids are going to get lots of carrots and peppers in their school lunches!
We will miss the kids’ help this summer. They both bagged and portioned and also helped wash bins over the weekend a few times. Evan was called on a lot while I recovered from appendicitis and the surgery.
We also lose the help of Anna as she starts her freshman year at Wright State next week. Anna worked with us last summer too and we’ll miss her! She’ll be studying vocal performance and we wish her luck in this new exciting chapter of her life!
