A Note from Your Farmers:

Thank you so much for being a Spring CSA Shareholder with Oxbow! It has been our pleasure to grow food for you. We want you to know how important you are to us. It takes a village to create systems that support each another, and you are part of ours.

You signed up without much notice (thank you!) and in doing so provided much-need financial support to the farm as we grappled with selling food during a pandemic. You supported a community of farmers, including Sno-Valley Mushrooms, Steel Wheel Farm, Caurso Farms, and Wild Canary Farm. You got a chance to try some new veggies, enjoy some plant starts for your home garden, and perhaps rediscovered a tasty food you haven’t had for some time. You also supported our efforts to address food insecurity and food justice in our community by contributing toward our hunger relief efforts. You showed up, and we're so grateful.

As a farm we believe in using food to address the systemic inequalities that exist in our community and the world. One of the most meaningful aspects of our Spring CSA was the initiative to donate $25 from each Share toward hunger relief. Together we raised an incredible $1,525, which will help provide others with the means to continue working toward change in our food systems! We are in communication with our community partners to finalize the donation; once the details are sorted out, we will send a follow-up message to let you know the recipient. Keep an eye out for a Spring Shareholder Survey, too!

For those signed up for our Main Season CSA, we look forward to seeing you soon! If you’re not part of the Main Season CSA, fret not - we attend the Issaquah Farmers Market every Saturday from 9am-2pm and the Mercer Island Farmers Market every Sunday from 10am-2pm. Come see us and get your veggies! You can also find our produce at PCC Community Markets (lots at PCC Redmond) and Central Co-op in Seattle.

Your Oxbow Farmers,
Kevin, Josh, Shane, Gus, Cia, Dani, Emily, Kyra, Owen, & Melissa
