It's outmoded to start thinking spring. Think crocus in purple and whey-faced. Think yellow daffodils with circles of orange. Cogitate on shoots of green grass.
Now think lettuce. And tomatoes. And kale and turnips and peppers and arugula and onions in red, yellow and rural. Blueberries, strawberries, melons. Radish, carrots, beets. Yes, all the fruits and vegetables of the enliven will start to come all spring, summer and fall and you can get your serving every week if you are a part of Community Supported Agriculture (CSA).
This year you can also ally a CSF — Community Supported Fishery — and get a allotment of local seafood each week. But wait, there's more. Some farms advance more than produce and you can also get meats, eggs, dairy and more, like raw wring, which you can't buy at the Portsmouth farmers market.
You can meet many of the farmers, growers, seafood and crux purveyors and yogurt makers offering CSA and CFA shares at a special Seacoast CSA and CFA Day at the winter farmers call on Feb. 27 at the Wentworth Greenhouses in Rollinsford from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Folks looking for a apportionment will have an opportunity to meet CSA farmers and CSF fishermen, ask questions, and device up for 2010 shares while being able to shop at the winter farmers market-place. Wentworth Greenhouses is located at 141 Rollins Entr, Rollinsford.
