Week 9 Notes for Members

THIS WEEK'S SHARE: peppers or eggplant, tomatoes or potatoes, sweet corn, carrots, green beans, summer squash, zucchini, cucumbers, swiss chard or Asian greens, hopefully salad mix, cilantro, and basil

MORE BLOGS: New York City member, Meg Staloff, writes about food issues, botany, soil science, some cooking, and their hope to some day start a farm in Vermont on www.gastronomeg.com.

AUGUST WORKDAY: Join us to harvest potatoes on Saturday, August 9th. We will meet at 10:00 am at the farm office on the South Farm. This is a great job for members of all ages. We usually break for a potluck lunch around 12:30 pm and then work again until people are tired. Come for the whole day, the morning, the potluck, and enjoy a walk around the farm, working with the farmers, and meeting your fellow members. Bring a potluck dish to share, place settings, water bottle, sunscreen, work gloves, and clothing that can get a bit dirty. Hope to see you in the potato field!
