This week, we're celebrating Lou Roe, who spent the past year volunteering with our Fresh for Less packing team. đź’š

Lou has helped pack hundreds of produce boxes, making fresh food more accessible for families across our community. As they move out of town, they'll be starting a new chapter focused on woodworking and preservation courses.

Thank you, Lou, for your time, dedication, and impact. We'll miss you and wish you all the best! 🌱

⏰ Last chance to sign up!

Our prorated 5-week CSA shares are open, but not for long.

Sign up by 11:59 AM this Sunday, 5.31 to start your share with pickup on Thursday, 6.4, just in time for the shift into late spring and summer harvests.

We’re heading into our fruit and root season.
By “fruits,” we mean the veggies with seeds inside like tomatoes, peppers, squash, and cucumbers.
The roots bring depth and heartiness, think onions and squash, signaling the season is shifting in a beautiful way.

It’s a great time to join if you want to eat with the rhythm of the farm as we move into peak growing season.

Sign up before it closes! 👉 https://farmshareaustin.square.site/

Last week, our farmers, incubators and farmer friends gathered for Athletes in Overalls: Movement Health + Self Advocacy with Cynthia, a workshop focused on caring for our bodies while doing the demanding physical work of farming. 🌱💪

Together, we explored movement health and wellness from an athletic perspective, discussing how farmers are truly athletes in their own right. From hinges and squats to carrying loads safely and reducing low back pain and injury, participants learned practical tools to support long days and seasons in the field.

We also talked about movement self advocacy and the importance of food, hydration, sleep and stress management in sustaining ourselves through this work.

Thank you, Cynthia, for sharing your knowledge and expertise with our community! And to our farmer friends, if you’re interested in learning more or participating in future workshops, you can reach Cynthia at [email protected].

It’s Nopales Week! 🌵

This week in our CSA and with our Fresh for Less Mobile Markets and Home Delivery, we’re excited to be offering fresh Nopales from Cjscactus. These paddles come from the prickly pear cactus, and after many requests from our Fresh for Less customers, they’re finally here!

Nopales are a staple in Mexican cuisine, loved for their bright, tangy flavor and crisp, slightly juicy texture once cooked. They’re incredibly versatile too, great grilled, sautéed, scrambled with eggs, tossed into salads, or simmered in stews.

A fun (and important) fact: harvesting nopales takes a little care! We handle each paddle with gloves and tongs to avoid the tiny hair-like spines called glochids.

We’re excited to share culturally relevant ingredients that connect us to seasonal produce and traditional foodways.

There’s still time to grab a prorated Spring CSA share! Sign up by this Sunday, 5/24 at 11:59 PM for 6 weeks of fresh, seasonal produce, with pick-ups starting Thursday, 5/28. Click here: https://farmshareaustin.square.site/

Thank you to Congregation Beth Israel - Austin, TX for volunteering with us this week and lending their energy and hands in the field! With their help, we harvested and processed over 300 feet of bulbing onions.

These onions are now curing for the next month in our greenhouse. Some of our CSA members have already been able to enjoy a first taste of our red spring onions, two harvests from one planting!

Come volunteer with our farm team on Thursdays and Fridays! Sign-up at https://www.farmshareaustin.org/volunteer
