Week #8
Dear CSA Member,
July is a very busy time of year. Tidying up the fields, the spring time crop land tilled and replanted with fall crops such as Kale, Collards, Broccoli and more. The endless cultivation of weeds that do not give up. And, we have been also harvesting for the weekly CSA shares. Amongst all of these things, we are planning our Fall Farm Festival. Please mark your calendars! Saturday, September 1st here on the farm. 145 Garcia Lane, Leeds NY 12451. Bring your family for a great day on the farm. (More information to come) Make a getaway out of it and enjoy the Catskills!
