NOTE: I will be out of town for the next delivery cycle (2 weeks from now). The next time I will be delivering is one month from now. You might want to order a month's worth of veges that store well (squash, carrots, sweet potatoes, garlic). I encourage you to take advantage of this opportunity to place your orders directly with the farms and pick up your produce while I am gone. You would get to visit the farms and talk with the farmers; you can really get to know where your food comes from.
