My roommate Lindsay offered to let me come along to her CSA share at Silverwood Farm in Sherborn a few weeks ago, and our schedules finally aligned this Friday. I was pumped! I have Silverwood Farm’s logo on my vision board because I know I want to learn a LOT more about farming, and ultimately maybe even get my own share. And have a garden I can eat from. And maybe get chickens. You know, lots of potential!!
I know I need to do a lot more research because investing in a share is definitely a big commitment, but boy does it really, really strengthen your connection to the land. Lindsay, my roommate, even takes her flip flops off while she picks her herbs and flowers because it’s so calming to feel the ground beneath your feet.
Here’s the first stop, the Pick Your Own info. The white board tells you what your share includes that week…(and that’s Lindsay!) She was psyched to see PYO flowers on the list.
Next we headed out to the flower patch, and Lindsay picked out her favorites


I love purchasing vegetables from local organic farmers. I have shared a share in summer harvest in the past and they are wonderful. I have not participated in a full share because there is so much food for my family to consume in one week. I encourage you Ito participate in farm share program if you have the chance.
Thanks Helen, where have you split a share?! Did you like that farm?
