Oct's Guest Speaker Dave Product Pack -Kredal's Hampton

WHAT IS DAVE’S PRODUCE PACKS?: We are six university students who share a passion for sustainable, local farming. Under Dave’s guidance, the team will plant, weed and harvest the largest variety of vegetables possible. No chemicals,




pesticides, insecticides, herbicides or chemical fertilizer will be used. Each week, beginning in mid-June, they deliver a pack of veggies, artisan bread and a dozen of free-run eggs to a pickup point in your area. Our season lasts from the second or third week of June until a week or two after the first hard frost, usually the second or third week of October.
MORE THAN VEGETABLES: If available, we will always try to provide seasonal berries such as strawberries, raspberries and blueberries. We understand that our packs include a lot of vegetables, so as added variety, we also want to start occasionally including other SFL approved LOCAL food products such as cheeses, meats, fish, preserves and more. For example, one week could include a pack of Bruce’s SFL sausages, which are so popular or a bottle of homemade jam, which we would make. Of course, with these products we will have a selection and/or a choice, as well as an option for vegetarians and vegans.
