We've decided not to offer a farm share for the 2021 season, but we will still be growing for some of our neighborhood markets and restaurants.

This week's share.

It’s a mess out there, friends, and it’s likely to get messier. What are you doing to care for yourself? I am petting the cat more, eating expensive cheese, asking for help and taking i…

This week there's a lot vying for our attention and worry. Here's my plan to take it one-at-a-time, plus recipes for this week's farm share.

I have to be honest, friends: I have so many gripes about reality. Some of them are trivial and some are not, but every single one of them feels impossible to solve or meaningfully tend to. I need …

Hey, friends! Wanted to write a quick note about how to keep your fresh basil FRESH. Trim the ends, and store it at room temperature with the stem(s) in water like you would fresh flowers. Just be sure to keep all leaves from touching the water. Don't refrigerate. That causes the leaves to turn dark like they've been cursed.

Here's what's coming this week.

It’s hot. The virus rages. Our cultural and institutional reckoning around race and justice continues. The world is a mess. To eat food grown well, that also tastes good and nourishes our bod…
