CSA #36

December 20

Good morning everyone!

With just a few days before Christmas we finish the 2014 CSA season!  If only my back could have waited 2 weeks things could have finished on a better note.  However, I do count myself lucky that I have some time to recuperate before things get too busy again.  The 2014 season was blessed with fantastic weather  and crops did really well. We did have some issues with egg production but that won't be of any concern next season.
Plans for the 2015 are already underway, many changes have been made and we are planning for an easy going season next year.   Our CSA has shortened in length dramatically and many of you have voiced your concern.  There is no need to worry, we still plan to grow all year long.  Our products will be available in our store on weekends and at the St-Catharines market on Saturdays.  We are thinking this will work better for us and want to give it a try.  With the new schedule, we have decided to continue our annual plant sale which after this year we were thinking of eliminating all together because it was just too stressful.

This weeks basket:

Potatoes
Carrots
Leeks
Celery
Garlic
Cooking Greens Mix
And everyone who had eggs received 2 times

Extra Greens: Salad Mix and Tatsoi

Unfortunately, this weeks lack of mobility made it impossible for me to make a large batch of salad mix.  There are some bags available in the store though.

Let me take a moment to thank you for a wonderful season.  Our customers, many whom have been with us forever, are very special to us! We wish you all that really matters.... health and happiness! Merry Christmas!
