Royal Oak Farmers Market Saturday 12/6

Tomorrow Saturday 12/6 I will be at Royal Oak Farmers Market. I am not exactly sure where our table will be located, so please look for the banner (we'll hang it in front of the table). Hours are from 7am-1pm.
 
A couple of weeks ago we offered csa members that want to stop by and grab some greens as a "replacement" for the cancellation of the 20th csa week. I'd like to make that same offer again to our csa members that didn't get a chance to take advantage of that offer.
 
I realize making this offer doesn't work for many of our members, and for that I apologize, but it's what I can offer, so I must.
 
I do not have a lot of produce to bring tomorrow. I have a couple boxes of red potatoes, some lettuce, a little bit of baby arugula, tatsoi & mizuna. I would recommend coming early if you can-although I realize tomorrow is going to be a cold start of the day.
 
I regret saving to say that this is the last time I'm going to be able to bring any produce to market for a few months. I will be sure to let you know as soon as I can bring anything down and I will continue to make the offer to you so we can attempt to make right on the cancellation.
 
Thank you for your support this season. If you need to reserve your 2009 csa membership please feel free to contact us, we are accepting deposits now.
 
Your Organic Farmer ( a very cold one!)

Looking for new pick up locations for 2009 CSA season

We are looking for new host locations for 2 areas for the 2009 CSA season.
 
We are in need of host homes in Ferndale & Birmingham. The locations we have been using are not going to be available for 2009.
 
If you have a location you are willing to offer us and plan on participating in the 2009 season please contact us so that we can discuss the potential use of your home.
 
Hosts are required to have the space we use available for all 20 weeks of the season from June thru October. We are looking for a easy access delivery point (porch or garage) so that the shares are not left out in the elements.
 
If you think you might be interested in being a csa host let me know.
 
Hope you all are staying warm!
 
Your Organic Farmer,
