Please Note* We are nearing the end of the tomato harvest so please use up your tomatoes.

Dear CSA Member, This week you will notice the harvest begin to change. There will be fewer tomatoes, as the summer harvest slows down but, there will be delicious carrots as the fall harvest ramps up. Enjoy the tomatoes while they last. We will be missing them in the coming weeks. With the fall crops on the way comes a lot of weighing at the site. It is a good idea to bring your reusable produce bags to the CSA pickup for the remainder of the season. We do have eco produce bags for sale through the Stoneledge Farm Online Marketplace if you are interested.

To order log in to your member account and click on 2019 Marketplace > Bags & Apparel. If you need help please let me know. Enjoy the harvest. Candice
