Field Notes: This last week was exceptionally warm for February but as we head into March, we should expect rain next week. This is great news because the wind is drying everything out, even the fields that are currently irrigated. Asparagus has been picked and available ONLY at the markets in Berkeley and Sacramento for now. You will see asparagus in the CSA boxes and on the farm store at the end of March. Red Torpedo Onions will be coming to the markets next week. Look at for another carrot harvest soon. Order your Leeks and green garlic before they are out of season. Lettuce varieties have been added to the farm store.

Box Notes: ** The chickens are still been pecking away happily and laying plenty of eggs, however there are no meat birds. You don't have to wait much longer, Meat birds will be back next week.**
