Hello CSA folks,

I owe all of you an apology, with the busy-ness of the end of the season I neglected to get you all your fourth and final pint of delicious Maple Wind Farm syrup.

I can in fact finish the canning of the jars and get your final CSA syrup to you before Thanksgiving! It will come in handy when sweetening up your squash dishes or apple pies…yum.

How do you get your jar you ask? I want to make it easy for you. If stopping by the Andrews Barn is not convenient any longer since the CSA is over, please let me know and I can bring it to you, put it in the mail or make a drop off somewhere.

We will definitely be at the barn Sunday November 22 from 10-3 and I will bring them that day with a cross off list. If some time after work, works better, please email me.

Thank you for your understanding. In no way did I mean to not provide you something I had promised.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Beth

Hello folks,

CSA members, now that our season is over, Thursdays seem quite quiet. Again, thank you for a wonderful year and your support.

If anyone is interested in stocking up on MWF vegetables, I still have a few early winter storage shares available! Its 35 lbs of vegetables for $70 including potatoes, winter squash, garlic, onions, leeks, beets, pie pumpkin, cabbage, celeriac, and kale/collard greens. It’s a one time pickup! Great for holiday cooking needs. Im arranging pickup Thursday Nov 5 or by arrangement. Just email me by Wednesday to reserve one! beth@otloose.com

As the summer farmers market season comes to a close, you can find us indoors! Shelburne Town gym  on December 5^th 10-2 and at the Burlington Winter Market every 3^rd Saturday of the month from Nov-April 10-2  in Memorial Auditorium.

Just about 10 organic pasture raised Thanksgiving turkeys left! Spread the word! Ready for pickup fresh Nov 21 or 22.

We have some beef at the butcher now that is not spoken for and they are the last of the season before next summer. If you have thought about buying in bulk for your freezers, now is the time. We have split halves (that’s a quarter cow’s worth), halves and even a whole cow available. Think about “cow-pooling” with a neighbor if you don’t have a lot of freezer space but would love to have some healthy grassfed meat at your fingertips. The larger quantity you buy, the better price you get. Our order form can be downloaded from our website www.maplewindfarm.com.

If you are interested, please email me asap! Then you can send in your deposit. beth@otloose.com

Looking ahead, we have a nice group of pigs that will be ready late December if pork is your preference. (1/2 and whole)

Lambs will be ready in the spring, we have decided to overwinter them since they are on the smaller side. (whole only)

Thanks for reading, here’s to your and your family. Have a great upcoming holiday season.

Eat well,

Beth and Bruce
