Week of April 15th

Hello dear community members,

The growth of our CSA program has necessitated adding another delivery day and changing some pickup days for 2 schools and the entire Santa Ynez Valley. The location will be the same and we will continue to send out an email reminder once your box is ready for pickup. The veggies are still picked fresh right from our farm that morning.

Please note changes below:

Brandon Elementary – Thursday Pickup (was Wednesday)
Adams Elementary – Thursday Pickup (was Wednesday)
Buellton Farm – Friday Pickup (was Thursday)
SY Cottage Hospital – Friday Pickup (was Thursday)
Solvang Elementary School – Friday Pickup (was Thursday)
Children’s Montessori School – Friday Pickup (was Thursday)

Many thanks for breaking down your box and removing your name label, please continue to do so. It really has been helping us run more smoothly through the day.

Don’t forget to use #somethinggoodorganics in your posts, we love to see what you’re up to in the kitchen!

Stay healthy
