Hi there! It's time for Week 8 of the Winter Share and we are officially past the mid-point of the season! This week's bag is perfect for some stews and roasts-- so call over some friends and tuck into some winter comfort foods. There are still eight share weeks left in the season (including this week.) If you know anyone who wants to join-- they can come on board anytime and we'll pro-rate their share. Tell them to head here and sign up to start their subscription whatever week they'd like.

Ahh..... Summer. This is what a Week 1 Large Vegetarian Share looks like in summer: it's crammed with berries, greens, pasta, onions, eggs and so much more. We have Large & Small Shares, Omnivore, Vegetarian and Vegan. If you sign up for your Summer Share and make your first payment before March 1st, 2018, you'll get the lowest rates we offer-- the Large Shares for as little at $40 per week and the Small Share at just $25. Click here to learn more about the Summer Share or click here to sign up . This is a limited time offer and will expire on March 2nd , so sign up soon!

This week's bag is pretty beefy: you'll all be getting three pounds of potatoes (Kennebec or Yukon Gold), a quart of frozen green beans, a pint of frozen sweet corn, a red onion, a quart of frozen tomatoes, two lbs each of carrots and parsnips, a quart of our delicious canned peaches and honey, a dozen eggs and 4 oz. piece of fresh Chevre from Wholesome Valley Farm/Paint Valley Dairy. The Omnivores will also be getting a quart of stock made at Ohio City Provisions (based on Parker's original Rich Winter Stock recipe), as well some beef. We have lots of different beef cuts in stock right now, but not quite enough of just one thing for everyone. For example, to give everyone a beef roast (10 per steer), we'd need to process 60-70 animals! So you might see a roast, some stew or ground beef, cross cut shanks or a combination of a few things. Ask your Greeter when you pick up your share, and click here to read lots of different beef recipes online.  Instead of the beef, the Vegetarians will get a quart of our delicious, spicy Sauerkraut Stuffed Hot Peppers (store in the fridge; we just sampled them in the office- so good!), a quart of Velvet View's Plain Yogurt (thin and pourable-- great for smoothies, breakfast dishes or baking) & 5 to 6 apples.
