Over the weekend, I received an email explaining that due to unforeseen and unfortunate circumstances, Mildreds’ Daughters’ Urban Farm would not be able to provide CSA shares this season. Sad news indeed. We scrambled, and found that the Penn’s Corner Alliance CSA still had shares available for the summer, and they had several pick-up locations within walking distance. I’m happy that we’ll still be purchasing our food from local farmers for the growing and harvest season, but I am sad that it won’t be from the farm just up the road. There is something satisfying about eating food grown so close the house, and at the same time supporting a very local endeavor.
