We love to feature produce in our boxes from other local farmers and Sunny Sky Farm has made an appearance multiple times in the past 4 years of boxing...but this box 2 appearance of organically grown strawberries takes the cake. Mixing them with their rhubarb is almost magical!

| season 4 box 2: leeks, scallions, baby romaine (2 heads-one speckled and one green), garlic scapes, kohlrabi and rhubarb and strawberies from Sunny Sky Farm |
As you may have heard, Craig had an accident while mowing the lawn last week and it laid him out completely. Now, the infection is subsiding and he is hobbling around quite well but this meant that he had a surprise vacation from his usual 10 hour farming days. We are SO thankful to our friends who came to help yesterday-The Haneys, the Goodreaus and Layne and Josh. It reinforces our strong sense of place to bring friends to our land and work the soil together, not to mention the friendships that strengthen between us and our children (did I mention that we always eat SO well at our gatherings too?)
So in that spirit, we will be having another gathering this Sunday, the 29th of June starting at 3pm on the farm. Bring your kids and your gloves. We will spend some time in the field but then gather around another amazing meal (bring a dish) and laugh. We hope you are LOVING your boxes so far, there is so much more growing and to come.
