Cooking Ideas
One of the biggest benefits of being part of a CSA is getting to know how your food is grown and talk to the farmer who grows it. We are always happy to answer questions about our CSA boxes. This is best done in person or on the phone. This week, Emmett Snead will be at CSA pickup from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. specifically to answer questions and talk to CSA members. Do you have a question about what we put in the box, or how this growing season is going? He’s always happy to talk farming.
