June 13th CSA Update

Good Morning CSA Members,

I hope that you all have your rainboots, umbrellas, and boats ready for your CSA pick ups today!

Please keep the farm in your thoughts and prayers as these torrential rains can really take a toll on many of the crops, especially the strawberries.

Here is just a few house keeping items:

EXTRA ITEM
There is an extra item in your shares this week. They are called garlic scapes. Our returning members remember this wacky looking veggie from last year. Check out this blog post for some information and a great recipe for this seasonal goodie! http://stonyhillcsa.blogspot.com/2013/06/garlic-scapes.html

UNABLE TO PICK UP?:
If you are unable to pick up your share you can have a friend pick it up for you. Please just give me the name of the person picking up for you so that I may add them to the list.

SWITCHING DAYS FOR PICK UP:
You MAY NOT switch days for pick up.  If you need to pick your share up earlier in the day than your scheduled time you MUST make arrangements with me prior. NO EXCEPTIONS! We have many members and limited fridge space so holding your shares an extra day is not an option. Everything in your shares is picked fresh especially for you.

GROVE STREET CSA:
We will still be distributing your CSA shares today, June 13) at the Grove Street Path Station. The Farmers' Market is cancelled due to inclement weather and we are unable to sell additional items. To pick up your share please go to our truck parked in the place of our tents. It will be parked in front of Duane Reade.

I hope you all stay safe today. Rainy days = great time to cook. I will post a few more recipes for items in your shares this week to keep you busy :)
