To my wonderful CSA members and dear friends,
Well, we did it. Here we are at the end of the first CSA...sniff!

I hope to see you on Thursday at Muddy, usual time and place. I apologize again for switching days last week. For those of you who emailed me about not being able to pick up, I will either give you flwers or extra veg or both! I'm bringing...

How about that beautiful weekend? I sure did need that, just as a reminder that it can be very pleasant to be outside working when it's cooler than 120 degrees!! Just gorgeous, hope you all were out and about and enjoying.
I have to be in Columbia this Wed and Thurs for my graduation from the SC New and Beginning Farmers program out of Clemson and LLF. I'm thinking we can change the pickup to Friday from 5-7...I know Muddy closes at 7, so look for me near the outdoor sitting area if you are coming close to 7pm. If anyone has a problem with Friday, Please! email me and I will doub...

He has groves of beautiful, mature fig trees that are loaded down with fruit! Here's the thing, I sure could use some help picking these little beauties. Would anyone be available to help pick tomorrow afternoon anywhere between 430 and sundown?? It'll be a real tr...

Hello dear CSA members,
Way to Go!!! It stormed twice last week!! It must have been all of your rain dances, and some of you mustve gotten nekkid:)
Here's some bad news, I am going to have to cancel this weeks CSA. I waited until today because I wanted to be sure. I have been really sick since last thursday evening and still find myself layed up in bed and under the weather. I've managed to get to the garden to water, and upon checking, it seems the veggies need a break too. This heat isn't just a strain on us, but on our plants too. Had I had more room or time this spr...

The watering saga continues, but this will be my 10 mile walk to school in the snow story someday, and I know it will all work out:) But if it rained it would work out a whole lot better!
Okay, this week, I'm bringin it! Last week was kind of a sampler pack with a little of everything. This week there's more fun schtuff to look forward to. We can go back to you all choosing and the portions will be bigger again. If you want me to throw a bag to...
