WEEK 10



Welcome to WEEK 10 here at The Dahlia Farm. This week features "Washington Cherry" Tomatoes, Golden Beets, New Potatoes, fresh cut Genovese Basil, Blueberries, Cucumbers, "Summer Spinach" (Chard), "Zephyr" Summer Squash and Curly Kale.

Be sure to tell your friends to get their own share - but they don't have to wait until next year. CSA shares (and half-shares) are available now through the remaining second half of the season. Full shares are $25 per week and the generous half-share is only $15 a week.

A half-season share is a great way to test-drive the CSA model, especially if you're not sure the weekly market basket idea is for you. We are so sure you'll be satisifed, we are currently developing an off-season plan to deliver a 12-month-long New England CSA in collaboration with several other farms, bakers & pastry chefs, fishermen & meat producers.

As always, please help us out with your feedback. Email, call us or post here. Your suggestions help us serve you better.

Heres the rundown in video format for Week #10:

One last thing... The blueberries are wonderful, nutritious, local, picked by us, and high in antioxidants, however we've collaborated with another farm to bring them to this week's CSA so it is advised that they be washed thoroughly before being eaten. If you are on an organic-restrictive diet, you may want to donate them. Otherwise, you will find them the same or superior to any others in the marketplace.
