Apples, watermelon radish, and red dutch kale
Hi everyone,
We’re now over 3/4 of the way through the season. The recent warm weather doesn’t make it feel like it, but fall is right around the corner.
With the end of the season in sight, we have to start thinking about what is next for Gard Mo. In the near future, we’re working to put together a fall program. Rather than the straight raw produce of CSA Club, we’re thinking about trying out something slightly more prepared. The working idea at the moment is “Soup Club.” We’re still working through the details and will share more as soon as we have our carrots in a row. But don’t let that stop you from letting us know what you would like to see from us in the fall since nothing is finalized yet.
In the longer term, figuring out what’s next is a little tougher. We never expected Gard Mo to make us rich. Between our dedication to zero-waste and making the shares as easy for you all as possible, the work and time it takes to put everything together is considerable and only grows as the CSA Club grows. Then adding in our conviction that the CSA Club must remain affordable and accessible to make sense at all, Gard Mo is not necessarily sustainable as it exists today. Fortunately, we have some ideas up our sleeve.
This week’s recipe takes advantage of the beets in this week’s share and feels fitting for this weekend’s rainy weather.
Hope you all enjoy the share!
