Hello everyone,
We wanted to let you all know that we will be attending the mini market that will be held downtown on Saturday April 21st. It will run from 8 am to noon on 5th Street. We will have tomato plants, asparagus and hanging baskets for sale!
If the temperatures fall below freezing the night before or the morning of market, we will not attend due to sensitve plant that we would be bringing.
We hope to see you there!
Thank you,
Neil and Tashney
Today is the last day to signup for our CSA program with the current pricing. After today we will continue to leave our signup open but the harvest baskets will go up by 7.5% and the market credit will go up by 5%. We will continue to leave open until the start of markets in May unless you fill our membership earlier than that.
This will make the cost of the half share $315 and the full share $575. Even with price increase, this is still a value over what you would spend weekly at market if you were to purchase the exact same items. We adjusted the price as you would not have to pay as early so we decreased the interest on the money you invested. We thank you for your support and business.

Posted by: Neil and Tashney MoseleyIt is hard to believe but our youngest(Addi) turns 3 today. We can now say that we have children that are 5, 4, and 3. We are so blessed to have them. We really enjoy having them involved with the farm and for now they enjoy "working" on the farm. I am sure that one day soon enough they will not find the romance of going to work but hopefully they still will want to come spend the day with me at the farm.
Just as a quick reminder to everyone. Our CSA signups are open until March 1st. You can signup right here on our site by clicking on the CSA membership and products tab and selecting the member signup tab. You will then be guided through the process. We thank you for your support and business. We look forward to the up and coming season with all of you. Thanks

Posted by: Neil and Tashney MoseleyWe hope that everyone is having a wonderful New Year. We are busy on the farm planning for this coming year. We are working through planting schedules, seed orders, CSA products, and design of our new commercial kitchen. We hope to have our kitchen operational by the start of market season this year.
If you have any suggestions of new crops or products you would like to see from us this year we would appreciate your suggestions. We also wanted to remind everyone that we have open our CSA signups for the 2012 season. Signups will be open until February 28th. We thank all of your support and look forward to seeing you all this year. The first market will be here before we know it. Thanks and have a blessed week.
Posted by: Neil and Tashney MoseleyHere is the recipe for the Butternut Squash Soup from our Farm Tour! Hope you enjoy!
Butternut Squash Soup
Serves 6 to 8
Ingredients
1/2 pound butternut squash, halved lengthwise, seeded
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 cup onion sliced thinly
3 garlic cloves sliced
2 cups chicken broth
Salt to taste
1/2 teaspoon white pepper
3/4 cup heavy cream, divided
Fresh Thyme leaves for garnish
Directions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Spray a 13x9x2-inch glass baking dish with vegetable oil. Place butternut squash cut side down in prepared dish. Pierce with a knife several times. Bake at 400 degrees F. until tender, for approximately 35 minutes. Remove from oven, scrape the butternut pulp into a bowl; discard the peel.
In a large saucepan melt butter over medium high heat, sauté the onion and garlic stirring constantly for approximately 3 minutes. Add the chicken broth, roasted butternut pulp, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil then reduce heat to a simmer for 30 minutes. Add 1/2 cup cream, transfer to a blender and puree until smooth. Return butternut squash mixture to the saucepan stirring constantly over medium heat (do not boil) until heated through and serve.
Garnish if desired by drawing initials of your guests on top the butternut squash soup with the remaining 1/4 cup cream; sprinkle with fresh thyme leaves and serve.
We wanted to touch base with those of you who still have market credit. Under normal circumstances you have until the end of the regular market season in October to use your market credit. They normally do not transfer or roll over into the winter or next season. We have decided to extend the time you can use your credits since there was missed markets due to weather. There are special markets during the month of November and you can use your credits during those markets. After those markets are over the credits cannot be used. We appreciate your understanding and patience with us.
Thank you again for your support!

We wanted to remind everyone that this is the last week of CSA pick up and the market season. We would like to thank all of you for your support of our farm. We hope to see you at some of the special markets throughout the rest of the year.
Again this year we will be doing our winter vegetables. Please watch for updates on the ordering process this year! Our pick up place has changed this year to Great Harvest Bread!
For the Wednesday CSA customers, we will be at the market this Wednesday even if there is bad weather!
Thank you all again for a great season!
