Creekview Ridge Farm Hello lovers of fresh, nutrient-dense, locally grown fruits and vegetables and local farmers! Thanks for looking! Kip Gardner, Owner, Creekview Ridge Farm

Creekview Ridge Farm is in its sixth year of production in the beautiful hills just outside of Minerva, Ohio, 35 minutes east of Downtown Canton. We currently run a 20 member CSA and also sell through the Stark Fresh Mobile Farmer's Market (beginning July 11, 2017, check out their page for details). We keep a self-service refrigerator stocked with fresh, organic-feed, free range eggs and other seasonal goodies at 426 Schneider St. SE in North Canton (look for the beige refrigerator by the garage). For those not familiar with the CSA concept, here is a quick lowdown. CSA stands for "community supported agriculture" and basically removes the grocery store middle man from the picture. You buy a "share" for a certain length of time (typically the summer and/or fall season), and we deliver a week's worth of fresh vegetables in season to a drop off in North Canton every week. It's a great way to connect the way you eat to a more sustainable lifestyle, while helping support those who care about the quality and ecological sustainability of the way they grow food. If you are interested in more information about the CSA shoot us a message! Or if you are in the area and want to come check things out, we'd love to see you; it's always a good idea to call ahead if you do! 330-265-5992.

Good Evening,

The week off allowed some additional growth in the garden, and this week I have a pretty good share put together. Also, Noah’s corn is doing well, despite some Deer damage (we are putting up electric fencincing around his plots), and I am hopeful that some of his corn will be in shares in August.

CSA SHARES AVAILABLE THIS WEEK!

This week’s share will include the following items:

Sweet Basil – a good-sized bunch
Thai Basil - a medium bunch
Radishes – Daikon
Kohlrabi
Onions – a big bunch!
Red Russian Kale (I think this is the most tender and best tasting type of Kale)
Cucumbers – probably a mix of a couple types, really good this year!
Swiss Chard
Tomatoes
Peppers - Bell or green Sweet Italian Frying Peppers

I’ll have 8, possibly 9 shares available, price will be the ‘normal’ $35.

If you want share PLEASE EMAIL ME AT: [email protected] no later than 9am this Thursday, July 30, to reserve one! Once you reserve a share you are agreeing to pay for it, I only harvest what's necessary to fill the reserved shares.

Payment options are the same as always – cash or check at pickup, or prepay by PayPal to [email protected].

Pickup will be this Thursday (July 30), at Working Gardens, 2526 Hankins Rd NW, Massillon, OH 44646. I will be there from 4:30-5:30pm, but you can pick up any time until 8:00pm, please text Scott at 330-265-9066 to let him know about what time you will be by to pick up your share.

Happy Spring, fresh produce lovers! I hope everyone is enjoying the arrival of Spring weather! It was a rough winter, for a number of reasons, including a cancer diagnosis that has kept me wrapped up with treatments (that are working!) for most of the past 3 months.

In spite of that, we are making plans for this year's growing season, and most of the seeds I need for this year's CSA were delivered a couple weeks ago. I'm in the last stages of preparing the high tunnel for planting, and I'll be starting seedlings over the next couple of weeks.

I will also have another grower working on the farm this year! Noah Salem apprenticed with me last year, and grew and sold his own crops, he is returning this year and has ambitious plans, so I expect some of whatever he decides to grow will be part of the CSA shares as well.

This year, I will be running the CSA the same way as the past few years - on a week-to-week basis rather than requiring subscribers to sign up and pay for the entire season. I'm not sure when we'll actually start deliveries, there's a lot to do yet, but I am hopeful that it will be earlier than the past couple years. If you are interested in being on the weekly notification list, please email me at [email protected]. Once it's time to start deliveries, i'll start sending out the usual weekly share reservation notices.

I am still planning on making North Canton my primary delivery area, but with the closing of Little Sparrow Bookstore, the droppoff location for the past couple years, I am lookoing for a new, easily accessible location for people to come and pick up their shares.

I'm very much looking forward to being your farmer again this year and look forward to hearing from you!

Kip Gardner, Creekview Ridge Farm.
