Turkey Hill CSA Newsletter
Week 5, 2007

From the farm:

Things are really beginning to ripen on the farm, with many crops just beginning to come in. I've also been busy this week with my two Kid's birthdays, so this newsletter is going out a little late. I am continuing to post recipes on the recipe page of the web site. Please visit the recipe page to download and print the latest recipe ideas. Please call or e-mail if you have questions.
