Winter markets???
It seems our mini winter market was so successful last year that Chris and the gang at the NFMA decided to give it a try this year at the University and West Seattle markets. I'm sure it will be even better this year as we will have three times the vendors with much greater diversity of product available.
As long as the weather holds in our favor (nothing below 25 degrees, please) we should be able to continue providing you with great looking and great tasting produce until at least the end of January.
As Brett pointed out in his last blog entry, it becomes increasingly more difficult to harvest produce this time of year; it takes alot longer to harvest while maintaining our demanding standards, the days are much shorter with less time to harvest and pack and just working in some of the conditions we encounter takes real fortitude. All this is worth it. Why? Because you are out there too, braving the elements every Saturday and Sunday buying produce, supporting us and encouraging us to keep plugging along. Thank you!!!

Our box seems to contain a lot less this year in terms of Swiss chard and the good dark greens. Is this due to the frost or a change in what was planted? I am missing those winter greens in the abundance that was there last year.
