Farm Friends,
We are pleased to announce a new variety to our CSA share– the Purple Burgundy string bean! These gorgeous bean pods bring the same tender, traditional string bean flavor that you’re used to while adding a royal flair to your favorite dish! If you’d like to preserve the color when adding them to your meal choose a unique salad or raw recipe to keep the deep purple color as they do change to green when cooked.
Reserve your membership for next season to ensure you get unique, local and nutritious vegetables that you can’t get during your trip to the grocery store!

Mixing art and agriculture, the exhibit “Sustainable Farming: Art for Advocacy” will showcase individual artists’ representations and hopes for sustainable farming. This Earth Day inspired exhibit will be on Monday, April 21st at Stetson University College of Law (1401 61st St. S, Gulfport, FL) at 5:00pm in the foyer between the Great Hall and Mann Lounge. A portion of the proceeds of all purchased artwork will be donated to Sweetwater.
A friendly reminder that this Sunday, April 20th the farm will be closed for Easter. There will be no CSA share pick-up or Sunday Market. The CSA Member pick-up is rescheduled for Saturday, April 19th at the farm from 12:00-4:00pm. (All other pick-ups this week remain unchanged.)
See you at the Farm!
