Fresh, delicious produce with a side of gratitude.


Good Evening,

I hope you are all enjoying your share thus far. As wishful thoughts of the autumn months creep into my head on days when the temperature is above 90 degrees, I quickly remind myself how appreciative I am for all that summer has to offer. I am also grateful to David for working in the hot sun to bring us so many delicious varieties of fresh produce.
