Field Notes: The chickens have been pecking away happily and laying plenty of eggs, however there is currently a shortage of meat birds. Meat birds will be back mid-March. You only have to wait another week for asparagus; they will be a CSA staple for 4 consecutive boxes. Carrots and beets have been seeded and are currently being planted in the ground, they will be ready in 4 months. Tomatoes have been seeded in the greenhouses and you don't have to wait too much longer for our selection of peas.
Box Notes: We will include CCOF organic certified Mandarins from Gold Oak Ranch, in this week’s veggie box.
You can order Blue Heron navel oranges from the webstore: https://csa.farmigo.com/store/riverdogfarmcsa. 10 lbs. for $20 or 20 lbs. for $40! Place your order soon. These sweet oranges are going fast.
