It has been cool and rainy the last week, so the crew has been inside&nbsp;working on seeding and setting up the greenhouses for our tomatoes and cucumbers. These crops will remain&nbsp;inside for the entire growing season and attention is lavished on them because they are&nbsp;the most productive crops on the farm for the square footage. We'll be sure to include lots of photos of their progress throughout the season.<br />We have also transplanted out our first seedlings: onions, beets, kale, collards, kohlrabi, broccoli, and cabbage. We have several rows&nbsp;in the front field that are under row cover to create a physical barrier between our crops and the pests. This is one of the many organic methods we use to grow our delicious veggies. The peas are also coming up in the front field. We hope you are all looking forward to this delicious pick-your-own crop.<br />We're happy to announce that our crew is filled out for the 2012 growing season.&nbsp;We have a diverse crew this year, so be sure to stop and say hello. </span></span></span></p>]]></description><link><![CDATA[http://www.gmfarm.com/blog/14729]]></link><pubDate>Wed, 09 May 2012 14:15:22 -0500</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Summer CSA]]></title><description><![CDATA[<div id="udicontent">

<p><span class="fontSize2" style="color: #888888;"><strong>Ready to sign up for our Summer Produce&nbsp;2012 CSA? <a href="http://csa.farmigo.com/join/greenmeadowsfarm/summer2012"><span style="color: #888888;">Click here</span></a> to sign up!</strong></span></p>
<p><span class="fontSize2" style="color: #888888;"><strong>The Summer Produce CSA: Here's How It Works...<br /></strong>Summer CSA shareholders pay for their vegetable "share" upfront and receive a portion of the farm's harvest weekly for 20 weeks, from early June through the end of October. Members receive the freshest, highest quality certified organic produce available at wholesale cost. When siging up for the CSA, members pick their distribution day. They must come to the farm for their share on their pick up day. This helps us know how much produce to harvest each day. Please see our FAQ section under "What is a CSA?" for more information. Pick up is at our farmstand only, we do not deliver box shares.&nbsp;</span></p>
</div>
<div><span class="fontSize2" style="color: #888888;">The 2012 CSA share is a one-size share appropriate for a family of four who likes their veggies. It costs $600 for the entire season.<br /><br /></span><span class="fontSize2" style="color: #888888;">&nbsp;</span>
<p class="style8" align="left"><span class="fontSize2" style="color: #888888;"><em><strong>The Risk<br /></strong></em></span></p>
<p class="style12"><span class="fontSize2" style="color: #888888;">&nbsp;Each growing season brings unique challenges and surprises. Occasionally a crop may fail due to conditions beyond our control, but we will keep you informed of the current conditions in our fields with our weekly <a href="http://visitor.r20.constantcontact.com/manage/optin/ea?v=0010Oqxbncv4Wr4VVxt5xU0JaBsyNvP9TDI3bSdeqegLGjkW7F8--qRWZKYdizP_hoEq7Lt9dtHAVyBXpycaW430RBOnaFAGWbp">newsletter</a>.&nbsp;We like to keep our customers informed so that they can share in the bounty&nbsp;of the season.&nbsp;Our goal is to provide you with an abundance throughout the growing season by growing a variety of produce.<br /><br /><br /></span></p>
<p class="style8" align="left"><span class="fontSize2" style="color: #888888;">&nbsp;</span><span class="fontSize2" style="color: #888888;"><em><strong>The Harvest<br /></strong></em></span></p>

<p class="style12" style="color: #000000;" align="left"><span class="fontSize2" style="color: #888888;">Seasonality affects the size of your weekly share, but typically you will receive a large bag of produce.
