Howdy folks and welcome to your first Tumbleweed Farm CSA haul of the 2025 season! We’re honored to feed you and your families this season. Thank you for trusting us to grow the safest, healthiest, most nutrient dense food you can find locally. We hope you get to sit down to a lot of family/friend/neighborhood dinners and enjoy the flavors of the season.
We’ve been hustling out the in the fields the past two months getting things prepped, planted, weeded, watered and fertilized. It’s a busy time around here but we have a great crew with us and we’re excited for the weeks and months ahead.
The rain this past week was a blessing and we got to take a break from irrigating the fields. The greenhouses still needed tending to, but it was nice to let mother nature take care of the rest for us. Our kiddos and the crew were in good spirits despite the cold and rainy weather for our first harvest day yesterday. It was a muddy one folks, but we got the veggies washed and cleaned up for you and you’d never guess how muddy it was!
Alrighty, we hope you enjoy the harvest this week!
