Wondering about food safety at Seabreeze?

“There are some things you learn best in calm, and some in storm.”
—Winston Churchill
Dear friends,
Welcome to our new shareholders! You’re joining a collaboration to keep local agriculture a reality, and we’re grateful for your support.
While we all are facing uncertain times due to the coronavirus, some of you may be wondering about food safety on the farm. Your food items are handled minimally and we’re using heightened cautionary practices. Further, the farm is a healthy environment and access is restricted. We’re happy to answer any questions you might have and will respond to all correspondence as soon as we can.
Here’s a quote I find particularly relevant this week:
“As you move through these changing times, be easy on yourself and be easy on one another. You are at the beginning of something new. You are learning a new way of being.” — from the council of 13 Indigenous Grandmothers.
May your fresh flowers, fruits and veggies for the week bring you sustenance and satisfaction.
If you would like to help support the Farm and our work, please consider signing up for our Hungry Heroes program that donates to appreciative San Diego military families or through Produce for Patriots, the non-profit founded by one of our shareholders, Rob M. You’ll receive a personal Thank You note from the family that receives. It’s a good thing all ’round.
Here’s to good food, friends, families and helping others. Call or email me if you have any questions or need cooking tips. May our food this week nourish, comfort and sustain you.
USDA: Community Supported Agriculture consists of a community of individuals who pledge support to a farm operation so that the farmland becomes, either legally or spiritually, the community’s farm, with the growers and consumers providing mutual support and sharing the risks and benefits of food production.
Be well and safe.
Stephenie
