This summer we are organizing monthly volunteer work parties at Fields Farm, informally dubbed “Sundays at the Farm.”  Over the years we have had many inquiries about how to get involved at the farm, and we hope that having regularly scheduled work parties will benefit both the farm and folks who want to come out and get their hands dirty.  Tasks will vary depending on what needs to be done at each phase of the season.

Dates for this summer: May 18, June 29, July 13, August 10, September 7, October 5.

These days will be from 9am-1pm (ending time is flexible), with a break for lunch around 11:30 or so.  We may try a potluck, or the farm may provide…we’ll pick something depending on how many people are interested.  Kids are welcome to join (there will be at least one toddler in attendance), and we ask that parents be able to monitor/supervise any kids they bring.  Please leave pets at home.

If you are interested and would like to sign up, or just have more questions, please fill out this google form here:

Hope you can make it!  If Sundays absolutely don’t work for you, and you still really want to come out, send an email to fieldsfarmcsa@gmail.com and we’ll see if we can make something work.

Hi Folks,

The last paragraph of this weeks post didn’t publish. This is also the last week for pottery sales at the farm stand. If you’ve been eyeing a mug or bowl for yourself or a gift swing by and pick one up. There will more pottery for sale at Creekside studio on December 6, 7 and 8th out at Skyliner.

Hi Folks,
We will be closing the farm stand at the end of the day on Sunday. The signs on the road will come down. Any produce left will be put in the grey refrigerator as it is the best insulated. You’ll be welcome to open the farm stand door and check the grey refrigerator for anything that hasn’t sold. Please make sure you close and latch the refrigerator door and close the farm stand door.

For this last week there will be Red chieftain and Purple Majesty potatoes, Amarosa and Purple Fingerlings, as well as Chesnock Red, Georgian Crystal and sampler bags of garlic and shallots.
