Thanks For The Love

As of two years ago, the Washington Post stopped publishing the list of local CSA's. This has hurt many farmers who depend on CSA's for their main source of income. With some searching you can find their online list, but many have no idea. On today's Washington Post Online Chat the subject of CSA's was discussed and we received several e-mails thanks to one (anonymous) member's praise of our CSA.

So, whoever you are,

thank you.

We are overwhelmed by the support, generosity, and commitment from you guys. It's going to be a great season!

with thanks,

christy and tom

By the way, in case you're interested, here's the discussion.

Some of you have asked what the amount of the payments are with tax so I thought it would be helpful to just post it all here. This is the payment schedule and the amounts due with tax. Feel free to e-mail me with any questions:
