Think Little CSA’s Week 18: Postponed

The snow has been a blessing for us (getting to spend so many uninterrupted days together as a family) and others (we’ve been watching on social media all of the great things our friends have been doing for the people around them). However, it has been very frustrating not being able to get to the farm to help the Howells deal with the severe conditions, but they have been extremely resourceful and seem to have everything under control.

Michelle, in a recent blog post, wrote, “…these brief experiences of hardship keep us in some small ways connected to the immense hardships of those around us.” The record cold could be potentially devastating not only for the year-round farmers without heat for the crops, but also those who don’t have heat for their homes, or a home at all. Please, keep them and those who reach out to them in your thoughts.

That said, it doesn’t look good for our being able to get into the farm before Saturday, so we’re postponing the share altogether. We’ll make it up to you by going a little heavy on the shares over the next few weeks. It has already been a learning experience for us in planning for the worst and it is simply a part of farming year-round. Thank you all so much for the kind words, concern, and support this week.

Stay Warm,
Jackson, Jordan, & Avery Rolett
