    I was super excited to start our CSA Program (Community Supported Agriculture) this week!  Our family purchased a half of share and will be receiving fresh produce, local honey and more for 20 weeks.  I plan to give an update on the items I receive from week to week.  Jake picked up this weeks goodies since I was tied up with a project, thanks babe!!!  It was hard for me to wait until he got home, I was so excited to see what we got!
