Winter Shares and Snowbanks

Tomorrow is our next winter csa pick-up. And a caution: the snowbanks on the highway have gotten really high. This is along the whole highway, not just at the mouth of our laneway. Two lanes worth of snow are pushed along our side of the road. If, when you try to leave and drive out, you go right down to the bottom you won’t be able to see any traffic. If you wait partway up where you can see if anything is coming, when it’s clear you can go down and poke your nose out and then proceed onto the highway.

Drive safe everyone. And if you are not able to make it at the normal 2-6pm time, please let me know and I’m happy to arrange another time.

Late winter on-line course from the School for Sacred Agriculture

Starting February 12 in the evenings I will host an 8 week on-line course: Seven Sacred Acts of Agriculture. For info and to register email: saugeenrivercsa@gmail.com If you reply to this post, please provide your name and contact info (I can’t tell who replies to posts through the website).

Happy New Year!

First I want to thank all of you who helped keep this community supported farm going through 2025! 2026 will be the 30th season for the Saugeen River CSA. It could never have kept going without the commitment of so many of you! It’s a testament to this amazing community!
As a reminder, return members can sign up through January for a spring or main season share. It’s great if you can make an initial payment now to help cover the seed costs. In February, if there is space, I will start accepting new members.

And also, as a reminder, tomorrow, January 2, is the next winter csa pick-up. With the weather and holiday schedules I know some of you may not be able to make it tomorrow. If you can’t please let me know so I’m not waiting for you, and you can arrange another day to pick-up.

Finally, starting this week I’ll be leading more Taiji and qigong sessions Sunday mornings at the Durham Art Gallery and Monday and Wednesday early afternoons at Golden Tiger in Hanover. Contact me if you want more information.

The days are already starting to get longer!
