McIntosh apples are available from the beginning of September and into October, so make sure to get them while you can! It’s best uses are cooking, applesauce, or just plain snacking. McIntosh is the parent to some of your other favorite apples such a Cortland, Jonamac, Empire, and Macoun.

Each and every week we do our absolute best to get to you the veggies we include in this newsletter so you can plan your week accordingly. Despite all our best plans and intentions, share contents are subject to last minute changes due to weather, field conditions and random acts of mischief by our beloved Mother Nature.  This means some weeks that half and full share compositions might not be identical and we will make up where applicable.

See you on the farm or on the road!

Cheers,

The FarmShare Team
