CSA Week 10: July 30 to August 1

This Week’s Share

Share Notes

• Carrots: Make sure to give your carrots an extra thorough scrub this week, our root washing machine is out of commission for the week so they received a spray rinse, but may be are likely to have some lingering dirt.

• Green Beans or Eggplant: Just as we started out with the cucumbers and summer squash on rotation, the same will be true for Green Beans and Eggplant starting this week. All shares will receive one or the other this week, and the rotation will continue into next week.

Please bring a potluck dish to share, as well as blankets and/or chairs for lunch, and a water bottle to keep hydrated.  Join us anytime during the event, even just for lunch!

• 10am-12pm Harvest Spuds
• 12pm-1pm Farm Tour

Location:

Sauvie Island Organics (Farm Fields)

Parking: When you turn right onto Howell Park Rd. drive down the short hill and you can park in the grass field directly on your left just past the mailboxes. Then walk up the road another 100 yards and you’ll see the sign for Sauvie Island Organics at the end of our driveway. Make your way to the end of our gravel driveway and someone from the farm will be there to greet you.
