CSA Open House

While some consider January a slow time of year, we’re plenty busy here at Wayward Seed! Early last year we hosted an event at House Wine in Worthington and it was such a rousing success that we’re back to do it again. And this year, we’ve invited a few of our friends–Frijolito Farm, Sippel Family Farm, and VanScoy Farms.

The event is open to everyone. Whether you’re a current member of the Wayward family, a CSA newcomer or just simply curious about local farming, please join us! (And bring your friends!)

The event will be held Wednesday, February 1st from 6-8pm at House Wine in Worthington. For those who wish to enjoy a drink, House Wine will offer $4 wine pours and craft beers. Reservations are not required. Also, there will be plenty of free parking. For more information, including directions, please email us at farm@waywardseed.com or visit www.housewine.biz.

We hope to see you there!

First Annual Shareholders Meeting

We’re twenty weeks into the season, with five more to go–can you believe it? The last few months have gone by so quickly, and already there’s a chill in the air and frost on the ground. It’s been a great growing season for Wayward Seed, and we hope it’s been fun for you.

That being said, we’d like to invite you to our first annual Wayward Seed Shareholders Meeting. Please join us on Thursday, November 10th from 6-8:30PM in the Dispatch Kitchen on the second floor of the North Market. We hope you’ll join us to talk about 2011, 2012, and the many years to come!

Feel free to get dinner before hand, or at the North Market, but please bring a dessert to be shared with everyone. Wayward Seed will provide beverages and utensils.

What: Wayward Seed Shareholders Meeting
When: Thursday, November 10th from 6-8:30PM
Where: Dispatch Kitchen at North Market (59 Spruce Street, Columbus 43215)

It’s been a year of great changes at the farm, all with the goal of giving better products and service to our CSA members. We hope you’ll join us! If you have any questions, please email us at farm@waywardseed.com, or call us at 937.644.0786.

2012 CSA Announcement

With the blink of an eye November has arrived. There’s a crispness to the air, the days are getting shorter and the end of the growing season is upon us. We have enjoyed feeding you, your friends, and your family for the last 20 weeks. And while there are still five weeks left of the 2011 CSA, it’s time to think about 2012.

The 2012 CSA will remain the same. Each week you will receive approximately 9-11 items in your share, with roughly 7-8 vegetables and 2-3 fruits. The share will last from mid-June until early December, and we will continue to offer Snowville Creamery and Cafe Brioso coffee as supplements to your share.

We have many bi-weekly and half-share members who will be looking for partners again in 2012, and we are happy to help make those connections.

Visit our online store and process your order today. Payment will be due in full no later than March 1, 2012. You are welcome to select supplements now, or wait until the start of the season. Also, you are able to select a delivery location; however, they will not be confirmed until the spring. And lastly, if you are splitting a share, we will still need to process your payment manually. Please email us at farm@waywardseed.com and we will get back to you as soon as possible. We believe the checkout process is a simple one, but if you have any questions or suggestions please contact us.

Thanks again for being part of the Wayward Seed family!
