•CSA - We still have some spots in our 2015 CSA available, both paid and work shares. For more info call Alice 515-460-1467 or email mustardseedbee@gmail.com. We'd love to have you join us.
•FUNdraiser - March 8th from 4-7 @ St Thomas Church with square dancing, silent auction, pottery sales and a soup supper. Looks to be really fun time with proceeds going to our spring projects of storm shelter and pond/wetland building. (please park next door in the memorial Lutheran lot) Look for an official announcement soon.

On the farm, we've started onion seeds and they've popped up already! They're eager for the growing season as are we. Many more seeds will be starting their journey soon, including another colorful round of native wildflowers for our goal of increasing pollinator habitat. its hard to tell how the soil moisture is - not much snow this winter but it was a wet fall. As always, we're ready to roll with the weather's punches and blessings.Lots of planning and prepping for our big spring farm improvement projects has the farm team well occupied.Stay tuned for updates on those and be sure to check out our website - we're really hoping to keep it better updated this year!

All the very best, Nate
