We hope everyone had a great start to 2024 and enjoyed the snowy weekend! With the new year, we continue to busy ourselves preparing for the 2024 season. Our crop plan is done and we are working on finalizing our seed order this week. All of this planning and supply purchasing means that it’s now time to start taking new membership sign-ups. If you’d like to join us as a Veggie CSA, PYO Flower CSA, Spring Mushroom CSA or Barrett’s Bucks member, you can visit our Sign Up page. If you are a 2023 Veggie CSA member, please email Melissa to get the link for returning member sign-ups.
In the next month we will be working on our organic recertification, closing out our 2023 books, putting together supply orders, working on filling a couple of open positions on our field crew, and even seeding some spinach and greens in our high tunnels! The number one question we are asked this time of year is what new things we are planning for the following season. We are always adapting our growing methods, crop list, and systems in order to improve our productivity and our customer’s farm experience. This year we will be growing more flower varieties for bouquet sales, beefing up our deer defenses, growing more greens all season long, and expanding our spring plant sale(gardeners and gardeners-to-be stay tuned for more details!). We are looking forward to a new season, and we’re hoping for more favorable weather conditions this year - though we’re ready if we don’t get them!
