What the Fields are Offering for Week 5-A

Welcome to Week 5-A of the CSA! We're welcoming groups Arugula and Asparagus into the barn this week. We've been happy to offer you lots of lovely greens thus far, but it's starting to get warm, which means you will see them begin to trail off. In this week's share though, they are strongly represented!

This weeks Worms Voice- our CSA newsletter.

In your harvest basket you'll find:

Lettuce Mix
Bunched Greens
Head Lettuce
Kohlrabi or Radishes
Turnips
Baby Beets/Beet Greens
Garlic Scapes
Summer Squash/Zucchini
Spring Onions

And don't miss the new wildflowers, the dill, or the cilantro in the pick your own!

CSA Muffin Luck this Saturday!

The start of the CSA season is right around the corner, and here on the farm we're getting revved up for this Saturday's season kick-off event, the Muffin Luck. Muffin Luck is a great chance for old CSA members to reconnect and for new CSA members to meet their farmers, get to know Red Wiggler, and connect with the larger CSA community. We have expanded the number of CSA shares this year from 94 to 120 so there should be plenty of new faces to meet on Saturday!

Our CSA shares sold out quickly this year, so we don't have any more spots available, but if you are already a signed up member, please don't forget to join us on Saturday from 10am to 12pm at Red Wiggler Community Farm, located at 23400 Ridge Rd, Germantown, MD.

We will all be bringing a half dozen of muffins, and I'm personally excited about trying out this recipe for Strawberry Banana Muffins. Strawberries are just starting to come into season, and man do they taste great!
