We have a great crew of regular volunteers this year at the Yorkville site.  With vacations coming up, we'll need to supplement and are looking for members to step forward in July.  A description of the work on each shift is provided below.  If you are able to commit to a date in July, please leave a comment with the date and shift.  The dates are 7/7, 7/14, 7/21, 7/28.  We will have experienced volunteers helping with opening and closing so don't worry about being stuck alone without any support.

Welcome to season 13 of our CSA project.  Deliveries start on Tuesday, June 9 with members welcome to come pickup between 4:00 - 7:00 PM.  We set up on York Ave outside of the Church of the Epiphany near 74th St.  In case of rain we will be in the vestibule of the church sanctuary located on 74th between York and 1st.  Please bring you own bag if you can.  In fact we'd be very happy to take any clean shopping bags you have lying around and add them to the stash.  Look out for messages posted on Sundays or Mondays with the weekly share selection as well as notes from the farms about the season's progress.

Looking forward to seeing everyone.

I will have a half share of veggies and one full and one half share of fruit available for someone who wants to try out the coop or could not get in.  I will pro-rate the cost.  The dates are from July 28 to August 18.  Anyone interested can email me at:  crhiker@aol.com

I am going to be away for July and August.  Is anyone interested in buying that part of my share?

Thanks

Volunteers are needed to call members and remind them of the first delivery date.  While most of our communications these days is over the Internet, not all of our members check email or websites religiously.  The more people willing to pitch in, the less phone calls each person needs to make.  Please respond by adding a comment on this post or send an email if you can help.
