It's hard to believe that it's happened again! As I'm sure you've all been hearing and reading, this has been a record year for snow here in the Mat Valley. Farmers all over are 2-3 weeks late getting into their fields this year, and we are in the same boat! We have moved many of our plants back from the cold frames into the greenhouse for a little more protection during these cold nights.

Luckily, this time the sun came out and melted the snow quickly. The forecast is sunny for the next week. Let's cross our fingers that these puddles will dry up!

We appreciate your patience as this season continues to present challenges for us. It looks like our first harvest date is likely to be a couple of weeks later than expected, given the current situation. We are doing everything we can to get the season up and rolling, and are continuing to seed as scheduled in the basement, with the hopes of getting into our fields as soon as we possibly can. The beauty of the CSA partnership is incredibly apparent here, and we thank you so much for your support and understanding as we continue to manage this crazy season! Our volunteer team has all arrived, so be on the lookout for a future post of pictures and bios of your farm team.
