CSA Newsletter Week 2/52

MOUNTAIN BOUNTY FARM NEWS
Week 2/52 of 2021 

Dear Farm Members,

This past week, we planted 1500 tomato seeds and dreamed about tomato sandwiches and the heat of summer. With the help of some supplemental light, heat, and a little bit of luck, these very first tomato plants will be ready to transplant into one of our hoophouses by mid-February, putting us well on our way to early summer tomatoes. Winter is certainly where many dreams are born in farming, when time and potential energy are at their peak and the promise of a new season stretches out before us. A slower pace, sometimes (but not always) at the mercy of winter weather, also means an opportunity to complete projects and carry out new ideas, whether that means fixing fences, building owl boxes, or repairing tractors. It’s easy to live with one foot in the future, and we do our best to balance out all that reckless idealism with a slightly more restful state of mind, the hallmark of our particular brand of seasonal work. We’ll be juggling the demands of the main season and harvesting truckloads of tomatoes before we know it! Here’s hoping this week finds you all happy, nourished, and well rested.

CSA Newsletter Week 51/35 - Final Delivery of 2020!

MOUNTAIN BOUNTY FARM NEWS
Week 51/53 of 2020 

Dear Farm Members,

Just like that, this week marks our last CSA delivery of 2020! We’ll be back in two short weeks, happy and well-rested, with as much amazing organic local produce as ever. Despite everything that this year has thrown our way - a global pandemic, record-breaking heat, fire, smoke - we find ourselves right back where we started, ready to sow seeds and do it all over again. Each season of farming requires that you constantly push the limits of your ability to adapt, and this year has certainly been no different. Through it all, we keep learning and dreaming up new ways to grow food, to grow community, to connect with each other and the earth, and to build resilience within ourselves.  It is a constant pursuit, and well worthwhile. Here’s hoping that his winter and holiday season finds you all safe and warm, with full hearts and bellies. We’ll see you next year!

Your Mountain Bounty Farmers

Reminder: We are on Farm Vacation from December 19th, 2020 through January 3rd, 2021 and do not deliver those weeks.

MOUNTAIN BOUNTY FARM NEWS
Week 50/53 of 2020

Dear Farm Members,

As we continue easing our fields out of production for the winter, progressively more and more of the items in your boxes will be coming from our partner farms*- Fully Belly, Coke, Riverdog, Terra Firma, Pinnacle, Super Tuber, and Natural Trading company. A few items, mainly storage crops like winter squash and carrots (extra sweet from all these cold nights), will continue to come from us for as long as our supply allows! We are ever grateful for the support of these farmer friends, and for the opportunity to provide produce through our CSA year-round. The collaborative network we’ve built together with these folks has allowed us to extend the season for our members, rest our fields , and support fellow organic farmers with similar ethics and growing practices to our own. We’re stronger together!

CSA Newsletter Week 49/50

MOUNTAIN BOUNTY FARM NEWS
Week 49/53 of 2020

Dear Farm Members,

After a few days off to rest and celebrate, the weight of this past season, and of the winter to come, has really begun to sink in. Thank you to every last one of you for the outpouring of support you have offered us throughout all of the challenges 2020 has thrown at us. We can’t do this without you!  

As we ease into winter, sights have shifted to an exciting project that’s already partially underway - the massive transition of most of our farm operations from our ‘homesite’ on Blind Shady Rd. to our main farm site on Birchville Rd. I cannot begin to explain what a game-changer this will be for the farm. For years, we’ve managed a constant, complex schlep from one site to the other - transplants, tools, humans, produce, etc. all have to be loaded up and transported on a daily basis. Our new evergreen lease with the Bear Yuba Land Trust has given us the land security we’ve desperately needed in order to move ahead in building permanent infrastructure, and to consolidate our production into a single farm site. This means building a new greenhouse, modifying the on-site barn, moving all of our tools and supplies, and the list goes on! It’s an incredible opportunity to finally be able to dream up a brighter future for what this farm can become, and of what we’ll be able to offer this community as a result. We’re excited to share all these developments as things move along, and will keep you all posted. For now, we wish you the best that this season has to offer - clear days, crisp nights, good food, and plenty of time (or facetime) with the ones you love.

CSA Newsletter Week 48/53 - Thankful for Escarole!

MOUNTAIN BOUNTY FARM NEWS
Week 48/53 of 2020

Dear Farm Members,

This week, among many things, we are grateful for escarole. Easily mistaken for a giant head of lettuce, this leafy green gem goes above and beyond - transcending lettuce not just in volume but with crisp texture and the delicious sharp flavor that graces all chicories (although you’ll find it’s much milder than radicchio). We love it in a sweet and citrusy salad, or, If bitter isn’t your thing, braised to perfection alongside white beans, good olive oil, and a dusting of parmesan. At a time when gratitude for abundance is front and center, escarole shines - humble, gracious, and completely magnificent. Enjoy!

CSA Newsletter Week 47/53 - Thank you FARMERS!

MOUNTAIN BOUNTY FARM NEWS
Week 47/53 of 2020

Dear Farm Members,

This week marks the end of our ‘main’ season of farming, and the conclusion of this year’s farm internship. For 8 months out of each year, we are joined by 3-5 energetic, bright-eyed interns who form the backbone of our crew throughout the entirety of the season. Each lends their own life experience, opinion, and personality to their work, offering diverse skill sets and knowledge to the farm as a whole. They constantly inspire our crew with the innovation and ingenuity that comes with renewed perspective, and we are ever grateful for the opportunity to work with such brilliant, hard-working folks. 

This has been a particularly hard year in so many ways, and it is with much gratitude that I’d like to thank both our interns and crew for their incredible work and undeniable contributions. Nate, Christy, Becky, Anna, Mike, Grace, Kritters, Maia, Cullen, Gally, Evan, and Jake - thank you for all that you do! The world is a better place with all of you in it.

CSA Newsletter Week 46/53 - Rain at last!

What a huge relief it is to get some rain and cool weather at long last! Water is a much needed balm for this parched land, and we’ll happily welcome every drop we can get. As the chaos of summer leaves us and the days turn towards dark and cold, the farm, like many of us, is moving into its most restful state. Over the next few weeks, we’ll continue to harvest what’s left in the field, supplementing with produce from our winter-share farm friends as the season continues.

This week, your boxes come complete with a final round of sweet, crunchy, hard-earned celery. To say that celery is finicky is an understatement - it’s slow growing, needs huge amounts of water and nutrients, plenty of sun, and a bit of shade (a hard combination to come by mid-summer). And although it’s certainly not the biggest star of the vegetable world, we think it shines bright just the same. However you choose to enjoy it, we hope that its versatility and delicate flavor lend depth and character to winter salads and hearty stews alike on these chilly nights!

CSA Newsletter Week 45/53

Exciting news! November 1st marks the beginning of Nisenan Heritage Month, a Nisenan-led community educational opportunity that seeks to offer reflection and insight into the stories of Nisenan people and the Nevada City Nisenan Rancheria.

Nevada City and much of the surrounding area (including both of our Mountain Bounty farm sites) rests on land that Nisenan people have called home since ancient times. As a farm, we recognize that the land we operate on is unceded indigenous territory, and pay monthly “rent” to the Nevada City Rancheria’s 'Ancestral Homelands Reciprocity Program’ via our lease with the Bear Yuba Land Trust.

As a result of historically anti-indigenous government action and legislation, the Nevada City Rancheria is no longer federally recognized by the United States. This means that “tribal members are denied access to the federal Indian programs created to support their health, education, housing and economic stability.” Donations and reciprocity payments are crucially instrumental in the “preservation, protection and perpetuation of the Nisenan people and their culture into the future, while advocating for the restoration of the Nevada City Rancheria’s federal recognition.” (California Heritage Indigenous Research Project).

We encourage all of you to take some time this month to support local Nisenan culture and to learn more about their history and the interconnected story of this land. Check out the list of links below for more information, and click here to make a donation to this year’s Nisenan Heritage Month fundraising campaign. Thank you and have a fantastic week!

CSA Newsletter Week 44/53

This week, your boxes come bearing so many of the incredible gifts that October has to offer, including our friend, the humble sweet potato. Rich, versatile, and nutrient dense, this vining, heat-loving root vegetable really shines in hearty fall dishes. We love them baked, mashed, boiled, and fried, although for sweeter preparations you’ll want to cook them low and slow (this article by Kitchn explains why). Added bonus- they store best at room temperature, and are perfectly content to sit out on the countertop or in a dark pantry until you’re ready to use them. With one of the longer growing seasons out of all the different crops we grow at the farm, these roots are a true labor of love. Enjoy!

CSA Newsletter Week 43/53

As we near the end of this incredibly chaotic season of farming, it is our joy and privilege to have finally found the time and bandwidth to attend a handful of farmers markets! Hopefully those of you who visit the downtown Nevada City market on Saturdays had the opportunity to wave from a proper distance, or to shop the booth and say ‘hi’ to our farmers. The decision to step back from the market this past summer was difficult to make, and we’ve missed the in-person connection that markets give us to our local community. Needless to say, we’re happy to be back at it. Next Saturday (October 24th) will be the last market we work during this short-but-sweet season, and we’d love to see your happy (masked) faces. We’ll be stocking our booth with all of the best fall vegetables, and maybe even a pumpkin or two. Hope to see you there!

CSA Newsletter Week 42/53 - Rain for Rent

Slightly cooler temps were a treat for us all this week! Still, the rain our region desperately needs continues to elude us. The lack of moisture adds another pinch point for us at the farm, where we’re currently attempting to germinate large fields of cover crop before the days become too short. ‘Cover crop’ refers to the blend of beneficial plants that we seed into our fields each fall to protect and improve the health of our soil over the wet winter months. With no rain in the forecast, we instead create the rain - something that involves setting up and running an elaborate amount of very sizable overhead irrigation systems. It’s a big job, so let’s keep crossing our fingers and hoping that things take a turn towards stormy.

CSA Newsletter Week 40/53 - Time to Renew

CSA Newsletter Week 40/53 - Time to Renew

As a CSA farm, we have moved away from the Summer and Winter Season distinction we've used in the past. With extensions to our growing season and capabilities, along with developing relationships with our farm share partners, we are fully embracing offering a year-round CSA to our customers. When you purchase a vegetable CSA subscription to our farm, the best deal is to commit for 25 deliveries, no matter the time of year you sign up. This tells us that you are committed to our service and willing to pay up front, regardless of what the harvest holds. However, with the ever-changing models of food delivery, we understand the need for flexibility, which is why we introduced the pay-every-4-delivery subscription option in March. These shares automatically renew, every 4 weeks, via credit card, until you choose to cancel. We also added the capability of you to place yourself on hold, which extends your paid deliveries one week into the future.

CSA Newsletter Week 39/53 - Overflowing with Fall Crops

CSA Newsletter Week 39/53 -  Overflowing with Fall Crops

On Friday, when the air had cleared and the sky returned to blue at long last, we were reminded once more of what a gift it is to be able to spend our days outside. Farming isn’t easy, but moments like this are rewarding beyond measure. The fields of our Birchville farm site are overflowing with bed after bed of fall crops- beautiful to behold and worth driving by if you’re in the area! We’re excited for the opportunity to share all this goodness with you, and hope you’re enjoying the clear air and fall weather as much as we are.

CSA Newsletter Week 38/53 - Smokey Skies, Full Hearts

Dark, smoky days are a big part of all of our lives right now. We’re keeping on as always out here at the farm, and making the best of this rather difficult situation. We hope you are all able to do the same! This year has been challenging in so many different ways for so many of us. May it inspire us all to take even greater care of ourselves, each other, and this incredible home we have here in the Sierra foothills.

CSA Newsletter Week 37/53 - Winter Squash

Last week we harvested our kabocha squash, the first variety of winter squash to come in from the fields. Next up is our crop of beautiful amber-colored delicata squash- a reminder in the midst of a long string of hot and smoky days that fall is indeed approaching! We’re nearly to that wonderful time on the farm when lettuce and greens are abundant, and a little bit of everything you could ever dream of is in season. And while there’s so much food to look forward to, make sure to savor the zucchini, cucumbers, beans, and other high summer crops that will gradually begin to make their way out. Happy eating!

CSA Newsletter Week 35/53 - Thank you!

CSA Newsletter Week 35/53 - Thank you!

What a sad, difficult week it’s been for everyone. With wildfires burning near and far, smoky skies, and a heavy August heatwave, our minds have been far from the field. Despite difficult conditions, the crew has been working as hard as ever through it all with unrivaled optimism - it’s an amazing opportunity to get to farm with such resilient folks, and we’re grateful for it! Our hearts go out to those who have lost their homes or been displaced by the fires, to all of the firefighters and emergency staff working around the clock to protect us and the places we love, and to the beautiful river canyon, forests, and wild spaces that fire has forever changed. To everyone out there who works to keep this community safe in tough times - thank you for all that you do! It is imperative, now more than ever, to keep fighting for our world and environment in pursuit of positive, lasting change.

CSA Newsletter Week 34/53 - Veggie Magic

CSA Newsletter Week 34/53 - Veggie Magic

Despite the heat, we’ll still be out in the fields this week, working hard to make the usual veggie magic happen in your boxes. Farming is rain or shine, and with the help of our incredible crew, and the occasional cold lunch melon, we somehow manage to keep our cool. We hope you’re all able to do the same! In honor of heat waves everywhere, this week’s recipes all involve minimal cooking - we know you don’t want to turn on your oven.
