To all our CSA Members and loyal market customers and supportive friends and family; we wish warm Holiday blessings to you and your families.
We want to take this time to deeply thank you all for your support and patronage of our farm last season. As a new farm we didn't know what to expect, and were happily blessed with all our your support. You really helped cheer lead us through a rewarding first season as beginner farmers and all deserve a pat on the back! At times we wondered what we were thinking; are the long hours and sore backs worth it, but your many words of encouragement and praise really helped keep us on track. We truly love what we do, and your support helps to keep the vision going.
Thank you.

While we know some of you were disappointed with some of the crops that failed or didn't do well, or that you were unfamiliar with, or just plain didn't like, you stuck with it along side us. Many of you expressed that we introduced you to new veggies you may never have tried before, and found you loved. We appreciate any feedback from last season in planning for next season, so please don't hesitate to let us know at any point throughout the seasons what you think of the food we grow for you, whether good or bad. It really helps us know what to grow- and what not to.
As we approach the new year, we want to remind folks that when you sign up and make a payment by January 20th you get 10% off your share price. Shares are filling up quickly, so don't wait; sign up to reserve your share before they sell out, especially egg shares, which will be more limited than veggie shares!
Remember that we are more than happy to arrange payment agreements, and that our Oswego and Regional Market pickup locations allow you to build your own box from that week's harvest, giving you the option of selecting the produce you like best. We are also hashing out details to offer a meat share, working cooperatively with other local farmers, so keep an eye out for that update when we get the prices and sign ups on the website.
If you would like to help promote our CSA, we have flyers available, we can either mail to you, or can be picked up at our booth at the Regional Market. If you would like flyers mailed, please just shoot us a quick email, and we will happily get some to you.
Our booth at the Regional Market in Syracuse is in Shed F and we will be moving to Shed C after the first of the year until the end of April. We will have escarole and red pac choi from our high tunnel until the end of the year as well as our eggs and great organic produce from other local growers, such as onions and potatoes from Grindstone Farm; beets and winter squash from Wiley Fox Farm; carrots and parsnips from Remembrance Farm; apples from Knapp Farm, along with other non local organic fruits and veggies from Grindstone Farm's store. While we would love for it all to be our crops we grew just enough for our CSA with little left for storage, and are happy to keep providing organic variety at the market through the winter and help out our friends at Grindstone Farm. Stop by Saturdays from 7-2 and support local producers from all over CNY.
We will NOT be at the market Saturday January 3rd.

As we take inventory of the past season, we anxiously await February when we start planting seedling for spring plantings, and getting our hands back in the earth, growing for you; our valued members.
We wish you all a very merry, healthy holiday; and look forward to growing for you in the spring!
Much love from your family farmers at Freedom Rains Farm.
