A big sigh of relief here as we have received two separate soaking rains to ease our drought weary fields. Lets keep that trend going please! Hard to believe it is already August…

This up coming week is the last full week of our 2011 summer/fall 20 week season. We have harvested, loaded the truck and attended (by the end of next week) 127 Markets! We are very grateful to all who have attended these markets both CSA Members and walk-ins!
We have lots of beautiful produce still to be harvested in the fields. Don’t miss our fresh ginger which made it’s way to market this week, did you know it freezes beautifully whole! The Brussels Sprouts are waiting for a few more cold nights to sweeten up, but the cauliflower and broccoli are tasting awesome!

“There’s a revolution taking place in Brooklyn and in cities all across the U.S.,” says amateur beekeeper Ross Brown. “People want a stronger, more immediate connection to their surroundings, and many are turning back to the land, even if that ‘land’ is in containers on fire escapes.”
FARM:shop in East London is an ambitious experiment in how we feed ourselves and how we use space.
