Time to Order Winter Shares

A friend recently asked me for recommendations for winter shares. This interests me, too, because our CSA, Brookfield Farm, will not deliver its winter shares from Amherst. Here's what I came up with. Be aware that I'm biased towards CSAs that deliver to the Arlington/Cambridge/Somerville area.

1. Drumlin Farm - requires that you spend 10 hours working on the farm, which is kind of cool. No word on pickup location, but Lincoln isn't very far from Cambridge.
2. Enterprise Farm - has an autumn share that just started yesterday and a year-round share - pickup at Kick*ss Cupcakes in Davis Sq. Wed. 2-7. They also offer home delivery.
3. The Food Project - pickup in Lincoln for Nov. and Dec. only.
4. Heaven's Harvest Farm - Another fall share until just before Thanksgiving, pick up at Cambridge Harvest Coop.
5. Red Fire Farm - has a winter share and delivers to Cambridge and Somerville for a small fee. May be sold out.
6. Stone Soup Farm - has a Nov-Dec winter share, pickup at Democracy Center in Cambridge.
   

Locavore Activism in Cambridge: Henrietta Davis Goes Local

Henrietta Davis is kicking off her election campaign to retain her seat on the Cambridge City Council by hosting a "locally inspired potluck supper" and a screening of the movie, "Fresh." The event is titled "All Politics is Local" ad will be held August12th at Davis's house, 120 Chestnut St. The potluck starts at 6pm, and grilled foods will be provided. Attendees are asked to bring a salad, dessert, or "other local dish." The movie starts at 8pm. Her invitation came with a guide to Cambridge Farmers' Markets and a list of Local Food resources.

I encourage locavore residents of Cambridge to show up and let Henrietta know you support her efforts.
