We are busy these days. So busy in fact I have just enough time for a nuts and bolts newsletter this week.
Kohlrabi, It’s Not Just for Aliens Anymore

Egg share and Mushroom Shares begin this week…
Talk to us at the farm for more info…

Pigs Join the Party
10 pigs are part of the farm team as of last week. These guys are busy digging up the winters sheep bedding in the barn but will be heading into the fields soon.
Visit from the Congo
We had a big group of Congolese produce farmers visit last week. They are on a whirlwind trip to the Northeast to tour vegetable farms. We had a great time talking shop and showing them around Crystal Spring. Farm talk bridges all gaps.
