Hiya everyone! A very quick update — the 2009 CSA is FULL and we won’t be accepting any more applications after this weekend. If you’re concerned about the status of a registration form you’ve already sent, give us a call at 434-248-5525 to check up on it. We won’t be checking email regularly again until June 2, so phone is the best way to reach us.

Well, helloooooooo spring! You’ve been quite the flirt this year, all redbuds bursting into bloom here and Red-breasted Grosbeaks at the feeder there, only to spurn us with long cold rains in the next breath.

Well, we’re glad we stuck around.

What you see there is one bunch of Easter Egg radishes. We’ll be bringing just a few dozen bunches to our Richmond markets tomorrow. It’s a bit of a tease — just like this spring! — but we promise it means mountains of gorgeous veggies are just around the corner. We’ll also have loads of flower, herb, tomato, and other veggie seedlings at our markets for another few weeks.

Some of y’all have been writing to be sure you haven’t missed the start of the CSA season. No worries: you haven’t! Our first deliveries (and on-farm pick-ups) will be in early June; members should keep an eye on their inboxes for an email with details about the first pick-up. You should have that by the end of the weekend. Just as soon as we finish scrubbing these radishes for you.
