May 2, 2012 By Sunset Park CSA

There are two more weeks left to purchase your Sunset Park CSA share before the May 15, 2012 deadline. We have had overwhelming response this year but we do have some shares left to sell. Please see the information listed in the post from Feb. 1 below for directions on how to sign up. As additional incentive for you, anyone who has signed up for a share (either every week or every other week) will be entered into a drawing to win a $20.00 gift certificate to Eclipse, a local Sunset Park Mexican restaurant.

Farm Work Day on Sunday, April 29

April 8, 2012 By Sunset Park CSA

We are excited about the Spring work day on April 29th at MimoMex Farm. We will be meeting at St. Michael’s Church (where the pick up is held) at 7:45am. We will work on the farm from 10am to approximately 1pm. We will then all eat lunch (pot luck style) before returning to Sunset Park between 4 and 5pm (depending on traffic). We have a van but space is limited so please contact us if you need a ride. Please RSVP to sunsetparkcsa(at)gmail.com with how many people will attend and how you will get to the farm. Also remember that this is a work day as the farmer is counting on us to help. Please dress accordingly. Hope you all can make it to meet each other and get ready for our upcoming season!
