Dear Friends of Raccoon Forks Farms –

We had big crops of tomatoes, peppers, okra, garlic, potatoes, beans, and other vegetables – and 2018 will definitely live in our memories as “The Year of the Squash!”
Our squashes grew with exuberance last summer!
Dear Friends and CSA Partners –
We hope you had a lovely Thanksgiving! Were you affected by the amazing snow that hit southern Iowa over the weekend? We hope it didn’t complicate your travels.
Well, it’s happened again! This week is the last week of our fall vegetables and summer eggs CSA share seasons. It’s astonishing how fast the time goes! We hope you’ve enjoyed your eggs and your fall vegetables as much as we’ve enjoyed bringing them to you! We’re a little bit sad for it to be the end of the season, but we’re also looking forward to our winter work and to preparing for next year’s growing season. We have some exciting updates:
