The Floods of 2011

Floods are covering our hay field and the rains rotted the tomatoes left on the vine.

We were lucky not to sustain any home or barn damage but our hearts go out to those that lost power and possesions.  Hopefully no lives were lost.

We work together to help our neighbors in this time of crisis - remember that  hardship can be overcome with the support of other people.

Prepared Foods For Health...Save our Family Farms!

Here are some thoughts on what our Members are Helping us With.

Our Passion

I love the study of nutrition and bodily health - there are a few simple rules to follow:

drink plenty of water, check you area for a natural spring and fill your own water - here is a link
http://www.findaspring.com/

eat lots of veggies

have fruit for desert - natural sugars are better for you
- maple syrup - minerals
- honey - allergy prevention
- watermelon
- apples

EAT LIKE A HORSE!
GRAZE: don't wait until you are starving because then you blindly eat - famished

This is June Royal!

The Store is Stocked

We are loaded with tomatoes, scallions. potatoes, carrots, leeks. cabbage, garlic, summer squash, herbs, and greens!  Also, newly planted baby arugula and swiss chard...
Check the freezer for Neopolitan style pizza $8.75 and crusty french bread $2/ loaf!

-if you have a specific veggie - let us know - so we can procure it before you arrive
we work with 5 veggie farmers so one of us should have what you like!

In the meantime - we are preserving/ freezing items that are perishable - so please keep in mind that you can purchase frozen veggies and combination prepared meals in the near future, as well!

August 17th - Finally, Ripe Tomatoes!

Tomatoes are picked daily when ripe and placed in the store.
One quart is $4.50 (this is less than $3 /lb) or $1 each tomato.

Please do not pick tomatoes or handle tomatoes.  Since they are heirloom, they are very fragile.
Thank you.
