This Week's Share: Garlic, Apples, Radishes & More!
October 30, 2019
This week we have apples from Homestead Farms in Poolesville, Maryland. They are conventionally-grown Fujis. Thank you to the farmer, Ben Allnutt, and his crew! He gave us a great deal in exchange for some of our premium seed garlic.
This week's photo comes from F Delventhal. Want to see your photos featured in this weekly email? Just snap a pic -- from the farm, from your CSA share itself, or even a recipe you make with your Clagett produce -- and either email it to us or post it to Instagram with the hashtag #ClagettFarm!
- 2 heads of garlic
- 3 apples
- 1 lb. greens
- 3 lbs. radishes

Thanks to everyone who joined us for our pizza party! We had a blast, and the clay oven made exquisite pizzas, per usual.
The last CSA pick-ups are Wednesday 11/16 at the farm and Dupont, Thursday 11/17 in Annapolis, and Saturday 11/19 at the farm. You have 3 more weeks to pick up your shares (including this one). Please remember there’s a limit of 2 shares at a time.
Beginning Friday sunrise 11/22 and lasting through Thanksgiving, CSA members may glean whatever remains in the fields. We’ll post a list of what we have beforehand.
