Well, the heat sure turned up this past week, and hopefully the monsoons are soon to follow. This week, we will be adding more ice to the coolers to ensure that your produce stays cool and fresh. We apologize if any of you received some subpar produce last week as a result of the heat. We will do our best to make sure that doesn’t happen again. Let’s hope that the temperatures drop just a little to keep all of us more comfortable, but remember that heat and sun bring even more delicious summer produce like tomatoes, peppers, and eggplants!

The flower share begins in just two weeks, but you still have a chance to sign up for our inaugural season enjoying Whipstone Farm’s beautiful flowers. The eight week season begins on July 8th and costs just $11 per week for Whipstone’s beautiful bouquets, as pictured below. To sign up, email us at shares@verdevalleycsa.com.

Best wishes,
Meghan
