Today is the LAST DAY of our t-shirt fundraiser. We are only 16 shirts away from our 100 shirt goal! Will you help us get to 100? As you know, our mission is to make local food accessible to everyone, despite income. We work with the NOFA-VT Farm Share Program to subsidize CSA shares. The …
We are *so excited* to be part of Taproot Magazine’s CSA program! Every member will get one complimentary copy of the latest issue of Taproot, plus a $5 off coupon if you choose to subscribe. Taproot is a beautiful publication filled with essays, recipes, art, and more all on the themes of farm / food / …
It’s that time of year when so much is happening it’s hard to keep track of it all! The seed house is full, with onions and leeks moved out to the hardening-off space and all the tomatoes up-potted (or, since we are using soil blocks, up-blocked).
