Our First Food Box!!

June 16th marked the first pick up day for our food box from Fat Chance Farmstead!! If you missed my previous post or I didn't explain it there we paid 600$ up front and then for 18 weeks starting on June 16th we pick up a box of fresh produce and a loaf of spelt bread. The fist one is special though for many reasons. The first is we got maple syrup, yay!! I love maple syrup. The second is we got some plants to put in our own garden. Now that might be a project I tackle tonight and I'll show you pictures, but it's essentially a 4' x 4' weed patch right now...

So here's our first crop share box:


So in this box we got the following:
Shallots
Arugula
Some more green shit....
Strawberries
Lemon Balm
Oregano 
Seedlings: Cherry Tomatoes and Tomatoes described as fuzzy like peaches, and Ground Cherries
Maple Syrup
Spelt Bread
Looks yummy eh? 

Have you received your first bunch of a crop share yet for this year? Is it enough considering it will increase as the year

  1. Looks good but a little sparse, did you try the spelt bread? It looks so goooooood!!
    So as the crops grow your crop share supply increases so you should be able to get a lot by the end of July/Aug.
