Planting has begun!

Hello everyone,

It was a long hard winter in on the plains of Laramie...but I think spring is springing. I awoke to robins chirping outside our window this morning.

Yesterday Ricky and I attended the Big Hollow Food Co-ops Annual Meeting and it was fun. It was great to see so much support! Ricky and I had a table where we were sampling Blossom Fine Foods Gluten-Free deserts (which you can find at the Co-op) and answering questions about the farm.

Many have asked us to do a CSA and after much consideration we have decided not to. What we are going to offer this year is an online order where you can preorder what you would like and then have the convienence of picking it up at the farmers market or we can deliver it to you if you are not able to make it down.

We feel CSA which stands for Community Supported Agriculture is best served by people supporting the farmers market that we have fought so hard to establish and by supporting local Laramie vendors and the community.

Maybe next year we might do a CSA and then not do the farmers market. We will have to see. Many local businesses will be offering our veggies: Sweet Melissa's, Big Hollow Food Co-op, Calvaryman and Coal Creek. If you would like to see us at other venues in town please let them now we are able to supply them with clean, local, fresh food and delivery is free.

Thank you for supporting Laramie and keeping it local.
