Hello Everyone,
It is important to remember as the months get colder and snow begins to fall, growing produce in our climate becomes more difficult and therefore riskier. As always, we could have crop failures but we will do our very best to grow you all the most delicious veggies we can.
This will be my first Fall/Winter growing in Mancos and I'm thinking it will be a milder than Ridgway... but we'll see? There were a few big snow storms last Fall and checking on the snow covered greenhouses (filled with greens!) that looked like igloos was pretty magical.
The Fall months are my favorite when it comes to the harvest and the produce available. So many flavors and endless possibilities in the kitchen. The Fall CSA will provide a bounty of veggies for warm cozy meals.
We have been planning and planting for the Early Bird Gardens Fall CSA since early Spring and are very excited about what we'll have to offer our Members as it gets cold and snowy in the coming months.
