Now that summer is in full swing and folks are able to get out and about it’s going to get really busy for all of us. Here’s hoping for a great summer!  This will be our very last Good Food Box. The gardens are starting to produce and the grocery stores are safe to goContinue reading “Plan B Newsletter July 14/2021”

Probably the most common greeting these days must be “hot enough for ya?” Yes, I believe it is definitely hot enough! If anyone can think of a way to trap some of it for January I think we should go for it. Life is returning to a little bit of normal and seeing each otherContinue reading “Plan B in the Lanark Highlands Newsletter June 30/2021”

A warm and friendly greeting to everyone out there. We have had a fundraising suggestion to host a “pick your own” caterpillars and sell them by the pound. Unfortunately we won’t be able to follow through with social distancing requirements. 😉 Like everything else in the world, Plan B is slowly coming back to life.Continue reading “GOOD FOOD BOX NEWSLETTER June 16, 2021”

Welcome to June! Hopefully the frost is done and the gypsy moths find somewhere else to go. Folks are being quite inventive on that particular battle ground, but it does seem a losing cause sometimes. At least the birds are happy, someone should be. Many of us had some losses due to the frost. TheContinue reading “Good Food Box Newsletter June 2, 2021”

So – this newsletter begins with a big oops. On Good Food Box Day the newsletter made it to all the boxes that were handed out. Before the online version was posted there was a bit of an accident and things got a bit messed up, communication lines were mangled. We apologize sincerely for theContinue reading “Good Food Box Newsletter May 19/2021”

If April showers bring May flowers, what do May flowers bring?        Pilgrims. (I should probably apologize for that.) We have heard from some folks that they are getting too many potatoes and onions and that perhaps there are other things they would like to see in the food boxes. It might beContinue reading “Good Food Box Newsletter May 5/2021”

I’ll try to make this greeting extra warm and friendly to make up for the cold and snow outside. It will be gone soon. I would like to remind everyone that following the new lock down orders is a priority for us. Not only to simply follow the regulations but to keep everyone safe. WeContinue reading “Plan B Newsletter April 21, 2021”

Good morning! And what a lovely one it is. I can’t help remembering that silly little poem from childhood: Spring has sprung The grass is riz I wonder where The birdies is. Probably not a great classic but it comes to mind every spring nonetheless. This newsletter has been painful to put together and IContinue reading “Good Food Box Newsletter April 7/2021”

We had a real taste of spring these last few days and I’ll wager many of you did what I did. Basked in the sun like a lizard on a rock. I could feel the vitamin D seeping into the corners of every blood vessel. (that makes an interesting picture, blood vessels with corners?!?) TodayContinue reading “Good Food Box Newsletter March 24/2021”

…one more inch towards spring and according to the weather prediction-today is the day to go outside and get a taste of what is to come! Just ignore next week. Let’s dive right in and talk about the exciting things going on, because there’s a few. The very first really great item is that aContinue reading “Good Food Box Newsletter March 10, 2021”
