2022-csa-week-4-share

We’re so excited to begin the CSA season! We want to thank all of our returning members and welcome all of our new ones. If you’re new to our program, here are some things that you should know- If you ordered Honey we still need to spin it, it will be in the bags in the coming weeks. we include one recipe on this flyer, but we also have four more recipes on our website (front9farm.com/recipes) that use all of the produce in the share. We try to use minimal packaging so any leafy produce should be stored in plasticware or plastic bags to keep it humid. If you dont know how to store something ask us and we will be happy to help. We love seeing the food you make so if you ever share something on social media make sure to tag @front9farm.We have a great share to start the season. The leeks and beets have been grown throughout the winter and should taste nice and sweet, even if their exterior is rough. Thank you all for supporting us and our farm!
