WEEK 4...and Duxbury Farmers Market





Week Four finds us with a possible break in the rain, the 4th of July, the opening of the Duxbury Farmer's Market and the following basket mix: Pak Choi, Swiss Chard, "Elegance" greens mix, Baby Kale, Broccoli Rapa, free-range eggs, hand-craft soap and Garlic Scapes (slight variation may occur between monday CSAs & friday CSAs).

If you have not made it to a local farmer's market yet, you may discover a new American pass time, very family-friendly and reminscint of halcyon days... Here's a peek. Happy 4th!

WEEK 2

Only 18 weeks left sounds like Charlie Brown's girl Lucy saying "Merry Christmas, only 364 shopping days left," but here we are into week 2 already.

Our market basket this week features beautiful fresh spinach, Asian mizuna greens, cress, radish, red-leaf lettuce, 'Black-seed Simpson' loose leaf lettuce, eggs and flowering kniphofia.

If you're reading this and wished you had joined us already, fear not!
We are still accepting CSA share-holders
for the remainder of the season - even if there are only 18 weeks left!
