Almost.
The next couple days are supposed to get warmer and warmer, topping up in the 60’s! Mind you, I am not under the impression it will stay that way. I can think of at least two years in the past that we had snow on the ground in April. My mind can’t help but drift [...]

For the last two weeks I have not posted a CSA report. I am so sorry and am not sure where my head is. Well, I do, my FIL is in his last days and fielding questions from the girls is nearly a full time job. Death is so hard, even when you are “prepared” [...]

4 standard
2 onions
1 quart of jalapenos
3 bell peppers
1 cantaloupe
6 pears
8 apples
1 cauliflower
…and advice on canning as well. It seems there is a run [...]

I’ve been delivering to a gal for the entire summer…ALL summer and never, ever has she just not been there, not called, nothing. So instead of $20, I am paying $45 this week out of the budget for our [...]

I have gotten out of the habit of posting my CSA goodies! I’m not sure how, but so it goes. Funny how it takes so long to get into a good habit, but breaking it seems to come easy. I wish bad habits were so easily broken.
If I am figuring correctly, we have about 2 to 3 weeks left [...]

cantaloupe
dozen corn
tomatoes
green beans
red potatoes
peppers (bell, red, and Cayenne)
onions
ground cherries
squash
cucumbers
Not sure what a ground cherry is? We have one growing as a “weed” near our porch that [...]
