Greetings from Doe Run Farms!

I’m going to start off this week with a link on how to make one of my favorite things to keep on hand. I’m always telling our CSA members not to throw away tiny smidgens of onion, carrots and other veggie scraps, and instead freeze them in zip lock bags for making a delicious, healthy Vegetable broth. So, without further adieu, here is your link: https://ohmyveggies.com/how-to-make-vegetable-broth-with-kitchen-scraps/.     This broth can be used as a base for many recipes, and it’s one you’ll be glad you have on hand – in your freezer. Give it a try!

“What’s in our shares this week”?  Hoping for Tomatoes, but crossing my fingers – bulb onions, lettuce, summer squash, zucchini, peaches, beets, cucumbers and a few tomatoes. Tomatoes are not coming in strong yet, they’re just playing with our emotions right now. It’ll be soon though!

Home Delivery Members  –  please leave our cooler out and include the ice block also. We will replace the block each week. Thanks!

Those delicious strawberries are in the Fruit Lovers shares,  and everyone will get a few peaches from the orchard this week. Hip,hip,hooray!

A Friendly reminder: We ask you kindly to only call your driver if you have an Emergency on your delivery day. We ask drivers to not use their phones while driving. If you call, be prepared to leave a message and they will return your call when they can safely pull off the road. IF they haven’t returned your call in 15 minutes, call Judy or John at 931-625-2651 or 931-625-0658.

Our website has the pick up locations, times, etc available online. The CSA Guidelines that were sent to your email address, has the phone number of your CSA Coordinator listed for your pick up location.  If we are running late, check with the coordinator at your location. We will be in contact with him/her.

Have a wonderful week!

Judy
