On Sunday June 7 from 1-3:30pm Tanya will host a workshop at the farm. Contact her for more info: tcoulter12@hotmail.com or 519 372 7898

Tomorrow is the final spring csa for the year. I don’t know when the summer shares will start but sometime between the middle and end of June. As the spring has progressed, I imagine it will be more towards the end.

Plant orders will be ready for pick-up as well between 3 and 6pm. I am filling the orders today in the order in which I received them. As mentioned you might not get everything on your list. I will have an invoice attached to your order and you can pay in cash, cheque, or e-transfer.

While you are here tomorrow, take a look at David Coulter’s (Tanya’s dad) paintings, sketches, and sculptures we have on display in the csa store space. It’s actually a really fun place to display art!

I will no longer take any plant orders, but I will be at the Edge Hill May Fair selling plants on May 30 and at the STC (Saugeen Trading Community) Market Day June 6. For those of you who did place plant orders if you can come to the last Spring CSA pick-up Tuesday May 26 from 3-6pm that would be most convenient for me. If you can’t make that time please arrange another day.
I won’t have quite as much for sale as other years since I was a bit short of compost. Making my own mix limits the inputs I have to bring onto the farm from outside, but it can be tricky. For instance, it is right now that I’m watching how much compost I’m using to make sure I have enough to set aside for next year’s soil mix.

Since 1999 we have had one or two members help out in exchange for their share. Over the years we discovered the most beneficial task was helping pick the peas and beans. If anyone is interested in talking to me about this send an email to saugeenrivercsa@gmail.com
