First CSA Pickup

Is this Monday! I can't believe it's actually here, or around the corner at least... Here are some of the most important details:

Where: 27 Sycamore St. at the corner of Oak St. in the Armory neighborhood of Providence. Look for the big shady yard, you can either enter through the driveway alongside 17 Sycamore St. or through the driveway/car park around the corner of my house (27 Sycamore), which is on Oak St. You can also get to the yard through the side porch of 27 Sycamore. There is parking on both Sycamore and Oak Streets. Please park on the street and walk through the driveways or the porch.mfmf

When: This Monday and every Monday thereafter from 4-7pm. We have extended the pick up time one hour to accommodate those with later work schedules. If you cannot pick up your share, please call me at (401) 644-2800 or Katie at (401) 351-4633 by 5pm on Monday and we will make up a share for you and leave it on my porch so that you can pick it up later Monday night or Tuesday. If you cannot make the pick up and you do not contact us we will give your share away.


How: If you haven't already paid in full, please bring your checkbook or cash to the pick up on Monday. You can either pay for half of or the entire remainder of what you owe. Don't worry, I have a record of how much this is.


What! So much delicious produce fresh from our farm to your table. This week we will most likely have:

a bunch of herbs: cilantro, sage, mint, parsley, oregano, or thyme
some heads of pac choi: delicious asian cooking green
a bag of spinach: my favorite current preparation method for this tender green is to steam it with garlic and then drizzle a little olive oil and sprinkle some sea salt
a bag of salad mix
some lettuce heads
arugula: spicy and tasty raw or made into pesto or lightly braised
radishes: so delicious thinly sliced on salad, or dressed with vinegar; also great slightly sauteed in a stir fry
kale

Also: Please bring your own totes and leftover plastic bags to reuse for our produce. There will also be totally awesome brand new Scratch Farm totes designed by our friend Hilary Treadwell of bit & little bit for sale at the pick up.

See you soon,
