Just checking. I sent emails this morning too all Beans with reminders about the pickup locations and some housekeeping details for the first week. If you didn’t get the email, please use the contact link above and let me know, because we may use the email list in the future. Here’s a copy of the [...]
I am outside constantly, encouraging your first lettuces and other spring greens to get a move on. It’s about as effective as telling a slow-moving toddler to hurry up and get ready for bed, but much as that child’s parents do, I feel compelled to as least make my point. And thus the morning lettuce [...]

We will be sold out by the end of the week. And…….instead of stopping at a particular number, we will accept any applications received by Saturday; we had some wiggle room because we planned to sell surplus at our weekly market, so I’m comfortable keeping it open until then even if we go over our [...]
What a surprise to see an article about CSAs in this morning’s paper! Even better to see Cool Beans mentioned. Certainly hope the celebrity doesn’t go to our heads….but today’s chore list includes filling several thousand 4″ pots for the soon-to-be-transpanted tomatoes and peppers. So it probably won’t. The article missed a few things that [...]
Are shares still available? Yes. I’ll post something here to make it clear when there aren’t. If at all possible, I’ll post when it’s getting close – but sometimes the mail has a handful of forms, so that might not work. How do I sign up? Print out the registration form – you’ll see a [...]

Yes, we still have some Cool Beans shares available. If possible we’ll post a note when it gets down to the wire, but memberships tend to arrive in clumps, so no guarantees! All pickups are on Tuesdays for 2011. For locations, please click on the links at the top of the page, which have more [...]
(If you’re here for the first time and need an overview of the CSA, please check the top of the page for links to our basic information.) Your farmers are hard at work, even though the ground is frozen and there’s snow cover. January is our time to plan, to look back sadly at mistakes, [...]

Here’s a quick overview of the plans for the meat CSA, which Judi and Tom will be operating from Yeehaw Farm, one of the two farms in the Cool Beans vegetable CSA. They’ll have a website focusing solely on that program shortly, and at that point, we’ll simply have a link here to connect to [...]
Well, goodness, that was an awfully short break! Just planted the garlic for 2011, and it’s time to be thinking about next year’s season. Judi and I have to meet later this week to work out some details, but from an organizational standpoint, our second year is far, far ahead of last year. Here’s what [...]
