CSA/Life on the Farm/Food with a Passion/Farm News
I used all of the categories for my title, as they all blur together for me. That's because I've been helping coordinate the CSA; I've been living on the farm half-time (Life on the farm); I cook with fresh produce (food with a passion). Really, everything is "farm news"
Somewhere along the line we find ourselves in week 8 of the CSA. How'd that happen? Even though there has been some bumps, I am quite proud of the farms' effort in getting really nice produce to our CSA members' tables.
The amount of work is impressive. Seriously. The planning, the programming, the contacts.... If you are a CSA customer, we probably talked via phone (cingular can vouch for that), email, and/or in person about our CSA over the past couple of months.
One of my favorite parts of the CSA program is the weekly deliveries. This is because I get to (A) deliver organic produce as a job, and more importantly, (B) get to see many of you each week!
Back on the farm, I'm heating myself with Tea, warm socks, and wood burning stoves. Yes, 'stoves' plural. Im using one to heat a wood- fired bathtub contraption I'm making out back. I'm trying to do it with as little monetary investment as possible, so it's pretty makeshift, but it works.
My body is craving lots of fatty foods for winter hiberanation. Grilled cheese always sounds good. However, I'm trying to eat 60-70% of my diet from the farm only, since when I do that I have a lot more energy and generally feel better. I like to cook, and luckily I have a friend who LOVES to cook, which works out for both of us.
Anyhow, that's about it. Have a nice thanksgiving. If you get a chance, please give me a call or email as I would like to hear your stories, especially if we haven't chatted it up in the past
