Greetings from the Farm,Welcome to the 2022 Winter CSA season! It may be a little warmer than expected, but it’s a great week to start enjoying the best of what this season has to offer. The Online Farm Store will fully open next week for distribution on Nov 16/17, but you can log on today to place an order for a holiday pie!
Reminder: Winter CSA distribution has shifted to Wednesday and Thursday. Pick Up will be today (Nov 2) at the Boathouse and Farm Stand. Home Delivery South will be today (Nov 2) and Home Delivery North will be tomorrow (Nov 3). If you aren’t sure which fulfillment option you selected, please email farm@willowsfordfarm.com!
Easy as Pie: Looking for a great holiday dessert option? Harvest Symphony Bakery has partnered with us to offer a fantastic selection of gluten-free pies for this Thanksgiving Season! You can pre-order a frozen pie through the Online Farm Store from Nov 2 until Nov 12, for pickup at the Farm Stand on Saturday Nov 19. This will replace the usual pie/quiche offerings and fulfillment options for the Nov. 16/17 fulfillment cycle.
Lettuce Say Sorry: If you ordered Red Butterhead Lettuce and/or Celery a la carte for this week, you’ll be receiving a refund shortly. We had a delivery hiccup with the Lancaster Co-Op and it won’t be arriving as scheduled. For our Farmer’s Choice members, you will be receiving additional Microgreens in your box today as a replacement.
Baked at the Boathouse: KT Pizza will be at the Boathouse today from 4pm-6pm during our Winter CSA pickup! Stop by and enjoy a slice! Check out their website for some drool-worthy pics.
Connect With Us : Join us for one of our upcoming programs or volunteer alongside us. Visit the Conservancy Events, Instagram or Facebook pages for details.
Eat well, be well,
– The Willowsford Farm Team
