We practice sustainability at the farm. Crop rotation, use of drip irrigation and re-using the flower water each week are some of the ways we are being kind to the earth.

We have two harvest boxes available for this coming 2019 season as of May 19th. If interested please email Lorrie at shadymaplefarmcsa@gmail.com and leave me a note. I will send you information. 18 weeks of fresh produce, herbs, berries and tree fruits when they are in season along with a weekly bouquet of beautiful flowers for $500.
We do have just flower subscriptions available.
A Full Flower Share is 18 weeks of gorgeous bouquets for $230 or a Half Share, every other week for a total of 9 weeks of flowers for $115.
Please email Lorrie at shadymaplefarmcsa@gmail.com if you are interested.

Pick up would be on Tuesdays between 4:00 - 6:00 pm at Shady Maple Farm, 8005 Portland Rd. N.E. Salem, Oregon. Our season lasts from May 28 to September 24, 2019.

Week 2 June 4

Week 2 Box items

A little cuddle time between picking time.

A nice warm day to check out all the strawberry plants. 

Lemon grass growing in the lathe house.

Purple of Sicily cauliflower
appears to be getting heavy.

Regular cauliflower with a
touch of purple. Hmmmm???

Lisa cuts the cauliflower.

Angie pulls the rhubarb...
Anna, with baby out of the sun in a
front pack, trims the rhubarb.




New for us this year, purple podded peas.
The blossoms and joints of the plant are various shades of purple. Stop by and check them out Tuesday.

Artichokes this week.

A few Sun Sugar tomatoes from the greenhouse.

Just enough Sun Sugars for our Tuesday salad. Yum! Thanks Anna.

White foxglove.
(Can't you just imagine a fox slipping
his/her foot into one of these?)

Pink roses. Such full clusters of beauty.

A critter thinks this is heavenly, too.

Delicate peony.

Mary and Mary bundle away. We work at all bundles being as close to the same as possible. Thanks ladies!

Harvested kohlrabi.
Many green ones, one purple one.

Asparagus today.

Green kale.

Purple Kale that is more ruffled than the green.

The many colors of Swiss Chard this year.

Helpers rescuing us in the tea field.
The right side "hedge" is full of the tea plants.

Foxglove and Cape Fuchsias.

Dahlias from inside the greenhouse.

Pink roses and blue delphiniums.

White David Austin roses (fragrant)
with delphinium.

A plethora of flowers.

Purple dahlias. Doubles, singles.

Wow.

Beautiful.

A boxholder's helper carries
their flowers. Thanks!

I really like this one.

A David Austin white rose up close.

A ruffle type rose that is so very delicate.

Greenhouse tomatoes are looking good. They haven't started turning color, yet.

More variety on the way.
Baby radishes.
