This week we have our crew member Emma telling you about her experience with us.

Hey there, I’m Emma! I’ve been working here at the farm for almost a year. It’s been an incredibly valuable experience getting to help grow sustainable organic food. When I was a kid, I practically lived on my best friends farm in Alaska, and it’s fostered a lifelong love of food and farming. I’m a senior in high school, and throughout the pandemic, the farm has kept me grounded and appreciative of the incredible things this climate lets us grow. Here is my favorite picture from this season:

With all the smoke in the air, don’t forget to hydrate more than usual! Our airways need it. Kohlrabi is nice sautéed with butter or added to stir fry for a crunchy addition. Our cucumber variety has changed to a nice english type! I think they have a better texture. I hope everyone is enjoying their csa!

Cheers friends, Alley
