CSA Newsletter for the Week of May 4th

Hello CSA Members!

This has been a crazy week. We started a brand new market in San Francisco in the Castro on Wednesday which was fabulous! When I returned home late that night I found that our pregnant goat Maggie gave birth to triplets! Three healthy kids which were all different colors. One of the 2 boys Maggie decided she didn’t like and wouldn’t let him nurse. If he didn’t get some colostrum milk soon we wouldn’t make it. He looked skinnier than the other two that obviously had full bellies. I took him inside and warmed up some frozen colostrum from last year that I had saved in case of an emergency like this. He learned how to drink from the bottle and by the next day he was running after me thinking I was his mama! Needless to say I have been feeling like a new mother; up every 4 hours to feed the little baby goat that we ended up naming Castro after the grand opening farmers market we worked that night.

Here is what is in your box today:  Italian Parsley, Red Beets, Red Romaine / Butter cross, Green Romaine, English Shelling Peas, Snap Peas, Fava Beans, Yukon Gold Potatoes freshly dug today, Red Beets, artichokes, and strawberries

I will post recipes later this evening. Gotta run to the PG Market.

Thanks everyone for supporting Serendipity!

Please share your recipes with us and we will post them the next week.
