Thanks to the Gallaghers for their very generous donation of garlic last Saturday which everyone loved.
This week, a little birdie tells me that another intrepid gardener is donating freshly dug potatoes and also poblano peppers! If your garden is overflowing as well, please come to the General Store on Saturday between 9 – 11, share your extra produce with our neighbors and/or take home some freshly harvested greens, veggies, herbs and eggs courtesy of Schoolhouse Farm. Everyone is welcome!
Here are the details: Bring your washed and trimmed garden produce between 9 – 11 (the earlier the better). We'll have a couple coolers but if you can put it in cardboard boxes or plastic bags, that'd be fine. The goal is to have all donations given away by 11 so that nothing ends up going in the compost pile.
"Extra Row," hosted by the East Calais Community Trust, is an informal weekly sharing of our gardens' bounty with our neighbors. NOTE - the Calais-Woodbury Food Shelf is open every 3rd Saturday of the month, so we'll skip those weekends.
If you are unable to bring your extra produce but want to contribute, please ask a neighbor or friend to deliver it to the store.
Feel free to email me with questions or suggestions. We look forward to seeing you!
