Until Next Year!
THE LAST HOORAH!
Someone once said that all things must come to an end, and so it is with summer and this year’s Tiny CSA. Thanks so much for your support!!! We hope that y’all had as much fun eating our veggies as we had growing them. We have learned much this season from our successes and from our trials. We have prospects for expansion next year and hope that you all will join us in our continued tiny adventures!! Thanks especially to all the volunteers who sweat with us through those fearsome summer days. And of course, we couldn’t live without the help of Laura Stone and Eleanor Davis and Drew Weing whose mighty efforts, patience, talents and enthusiam are unending and deeply appreciated.
