YOU ARE INVITED:

THURSDAY OCTOBER 20TH, AT 4PM UNTIL WE’RE THROUGH – THE 2011 HARVEST PARTY!

5515 HENNING ROAD, SEBASTOPOL CA 95472

(I’ll be coming home for this one!!)

Well folks, we suddenly find ourselves in October, meaning the season is winding to an end.  Just 2 more deliveries after this week, and I’m happy to say that the produce is still coming in strong!  We’ve finally made our way into my favorite crop – winter squash – which tend to be as much works of art as delectable cold-weather treats.  They’ll be prolific in the next couple weeks, so never fear – you’ll have a bounty of lovely fall decorations and pie-making behemoths in time for the holidays!  For now, tasty acorns, lovely delicatas, and of course, the bounty of summer is still upon us.  October is, afterall, harvest season!  We’ve lost a few things to pests this fall – the greens have suffered, and the carrots were, sadly, wiped out by pesky root dwelling monsters who’ve apparently been feasting, unseen, for weeks now.  But the tomatoes and melons and peppers and cucs are still among us, and the potatoes and onions and new successions of salad mix and spinach await!

As you all know now, I am currently across the country happily growing my brain, though thoroughly missing growing my crops.  You’ll all be amused to know that I have a true sense of what it is like to not only be a grower, but a receiver of CSA goods.  My sister came out for a visit, and upon my request, came loaded down with a suitcase filled with not just my rainboots and forgotten this and that…like a child on Christmas I elatedly pulled from the boots bags of peppers, cucs and squash, pulled from the depths of the suitcase carefully wrapped melons and boxes of tomatoes…everything a girl could want…

In the box: Salad Mix   Tomatoes  Cherry Tomatoes  Melon  Peppers  Hot Peppers  Squash   Cucumbers  Delicata Squash  Basil
