Thinking about Spring!

Hey Friends, 

I've been thinking about, as most of have, the weather.  Well folks, it appears that spring has SPRUNG!  Hooray for the seasonal shift.  It's coming not a moment too soon.  Yesterday, March 10th, I had the windows in the café open.  If you had a cup of joe here there was a cool breeze moving over your coffee beans before they were brewed. 

The change of seasons is welcome by all.  I can testify to this based on my interaction with the community.  So, now, we're moving into warmer weather and green pastures.  What else does spring mean?  Lounging outside the coffee shop with mug in hand watching the passer-bys.  I'm thinking about unveiling the outdoor furniture in the not too distant future.  Hot damn, this is the good stuff.

One of the more notable features of warm weather is the beginning of the growing sea.  Our area is ripe with small vegetable farms growing food to share.  Please support these folks so we can continue to grow the local food movement.  Here are some choices for CSA's in our area.

Each of these farms boasts unique offerings; different veggies, pick-up locations, honey, eggs, meat, etc. Check them out!  I participate in the workshare program provided by Three Sisters.  It's one of my favorite ways to spend a portion of a summer day AND I get a box of produce of which I helped (a tiny bit) grow.  I highly recommend this relationship with any of the farms listed.



As always, Be Well.  Drink Good Coffee. Take Good Care.
