You did it.
Twenty-three weeks. Nearly half a year of filling your fridge with leafy greens, vibrant roots, and vegetables you maybe had to Google once or twice (hi, kohlrabi). That’s no small thing. Truly—take a second and let that sink in.

You showed up week after week. You remembered pickup days (even on the weeks when life was wild and the fridge felt like a game of veggie Tetris). You got creative. You snuck greens into breakfasts, blended squash into soups, handed your kids cucumbers and carrots like they were snacks from a secret garden. You fed your family real food. And that’s something to feel pretty damn proud of.

One of my favorite things I heard this season came from our family doctor—who also happens to be a CSA member. He told me that one of the healthiest decisions a family can make is joining a CSA. Not just because you’re getting loads of nutrient-dense food (though your bodies are definitely thanking you), but because it often leads to something even more powerful: families sitting down at the table together. In his words, diverse vegetables plus shared meals equals stronger bodies and stronger connections. He says he recommends joining a CSA to his patients daily, if they’re able.

So from the bottom of our tired, dirt-under-the-nails, grateful hearts: thank you.
Thank you for committing to the rhythm of the farm. For trusting us with your meals. For bringing our vegetables into your kitchens, your lunches, your kids’ snack plates, your Sunday dinners, your Tuesday scrambles.

Our family loved growing food for your family.
And if your fridge feels a little too quiet next week… just know we already miss being part of your meals too.

— Until next season 💛

This was news to me!! They are high in potassium and rich in vitamin B6, as well as a fantastic source of amino acids, especially lysine in its bioactive form. Lysine is a powerful weapon against viruses such as Epstein-Barr and shingles that are behind rheumatoid arthritis, joint pain, autoimmune disease, and more. Potatoes also contain tyrosine, a chemical needed to produce thyroid hormones. So cool! Eat more potatoes folks!
