On Saturday evening, fifteen or so friends, old and new, gathered at the Memphis Center for Independent Living to learn and talk about our Community Supported Agriculture concept.
It was really exciting for me and Randy to get to talk about the farm, what we’ve been doing, and what we have planned for our first year as new farmers. Being part of a CSA means being at home in the kitchen, and the potluck spread demonstrated that would be no problem for the people at our first meeting. The food was great!
I was surprised and excited to learn that many of our potential members at the meeting were new to CSA, I think only one person had been part of a CSA before.
The feedback we got for our plan was positive, so we will have details about how you can sign up for our inaugural season soon! If you want more information, check out the Community Supported Agriculture page under the Get Veggies tab.
We are equally excited to have our friends and members come visit the farm and see it first hand. Mark your calendars, we are going to have a “farm warming” party on Saturday, October 1st! The official event details have not been set yet, but we’ll probably open our doors around 4 p.m. and people are welcome to stay and camp out. It will most certainly involve a bonfire. I hope you’ll be able to make it!
