Your shares this (B) week will contain cilantro (for sure this time!),
lettuce, snow peas, beets, swiss chard, kohlrabi, and either some
sweet, young broccoli or basil. Fruit shares will contain a quart of
strawberries and a quart of juice. Our fun summer shares that will be
loaded with items like zucchini, tomatoes, cucumbers, carrots, and
melons are just around the corner, so hang in there!
Egg share membership forms available at distribution once again, and
you must sign up by THIS FRIDAY, JUNE 20TH if you wish to purchase an
egg share.
We will be having another cooking demonstration at the site this week,
this time from 5 pm to roughly 6:30 or 7 pm, so arrive during that
time frame if you would like to have a taste of a special dish
prepared with items provided in the shares this week.
As far as volunteer shifts go, we should be set for this week, but we
could use some volunteers for the following time slots: June 25th at
3:30 pm; July 2nd at 3:30 at 6 pm; July 9 at 3:30 pm. You can sign up
by emailing me or by signing up on the volunteer shift calendar at the
distribution site.
Also, don't forget that you can bring food scraps to donate to the
Clifton Place Garden's compost pile. (Plant-based scraps, coffee
grinds, tea bags, egg shells are all OK - meat or dairy-based items
and anything greasy are NOT OK to compost.) We will have some
composting educators at distribution to talk about the how's and why's
of composting, so try to stop by their table!
you. First, we are having a contest to select a name for our monthly
newsletter. You can submit ideas to me until JUNE 18TH. We will then
ask our members to vote for their favorite, and if your name wins the
most votes, you will win a free CSA t-shirt! You may submit your
ideas at the distribution site on Wednesday or by emailing or calling
me. Our first newsletter will be distributed on July 2nd, and we are
seeking articles, reviews, recipes, etc! If you are interested in
contributing to the newsletter, please get in touch with me.
