Thursday, November 01, 2007

This week is the second to last pick up of the season.  How sad!

Looking at that incredible harvest and all those vibrant colors, it’s so hard to believe that in just a few days, we’ll be receiving the last share of 2007. 

Blooming Glen has some great cheerleaders and received fabulous press and publicity, which all seems to have contributed to a flood of requests for 2008 CSA subscription registration.  What a wonderful testament to the farmers’ hard work, dedication and passion - and too, to the supporters and members of the community.  Knowing that so many families, when given the choice, prefer naturally grown food from a local farm is reassuring and smile-inducing.  I do hope that Blooming Glen’s continued success and their neighbor’s continued support inspires the CSA model to grow in this area.

As they say, “If you build it, they will come!”
