Farm Updates
Staying indoors this week, I have been catching up and
working ahead on paperwork. When June
rolls around, check out our new produce signs at the market. They are bigger and contain more detailed
information we hope you find useful.
I’ve still got a few supplies to order this month, including electric
fence upgrades, cover crop seed and new drip tape parts.
The exciting purchases last week included sweet potato slips
(set to arrive in late May) and a snazzy new cultivator. Look out weeds!
Word just in today that Luther College is subsidizing
employee CSA memberships this year. The
first 100 employees will get ½ of their membership reimbursed (up to $100) when
they sign up for a CSA by May 1st.
There are two other farms offering subscriptions in the area in 2013 in
addition to Patchwork Green Farm. Check
out Luther’s policy, and then sign up at our website, patchworkgreen.com! This sort of wellness action is being tried
by banks, colleges, hospitals and other large employers across the Midwest in
an effort to encourage better employee health.
Garlic, kale and cherry tomatoes make for great preventative medicine!
Please check out our patchworkgreen.com website for our 2013
CSA details, contact us if you have questions, and send in your membership
soon. Spring will come eventually!
