Announcements for July 16th

Shares this week will contain white onions, sweet peppers, eggplant,
basil, beets, zucchini, and cabbage. We are anticipating either
apricots or another variety of berries from Red Jacket for the fruit
shares.

We still could use one more volunteer for the 3:15 - 5:45 pm shift
this Wednesday. If you are available to help out, please let me know
ASAP!

Also, don't forget that this week the Gnarly Vines wine shop is
offering a special tasting for Fort Greene CSA members. Whether or not
you are picking up your share this week, feel free to stop by their
store (350 Myrtle Avenue between Carlton Ave & Adelphi) between 4 - 8
pm to sample wines from Cline Vineyards in Sonoma County, which has
won awards for their sustainability efforts, as well as a few wines
from Hermann Wiemer in upstate New York.

Next week, July 23rd, we will be having a meeting at the distribution
site from 6-7 pm to discuss opportunities to get more involved in the
management of the CSA. We are especially looking for people who want
to write/edit the newsletter, help coordinate distribution &
volunteers, and to help plan events for the summer and fall.

Last of all, please remember that we CANNOT ACCEPT COMPOST at
distribution anymore, so please don't bring food scraps to the site.
You can still bring compost to the Fort Greene Farmer's Market on
Saturdays.
