More things to be stupidly excited about

sierciaA few years ago, we did a CSA for many of our summer vegetables. This was great... I loved getting random stuff to figure out how to cook, and the veggies we get were quite quite good.
Reading last week's food section of the paper this morning, there was an article about a farm that does a traditional veggie CSA, but also does a MEAT CSA. Once a month, you get 10 or 20 pounds of meat from their farm, a variety of chicken, pork, beef and lamb cuts.
We don't get to start until July, because their winter share was all sold out. And we'll have to carve time out of our weekend once a month to go pick it up in JP, but I think it's going to be totally worth it.
Now, I should go see if Lorac is interested in splitting a veggie share, or at least co-ordinating so we can share in the pickup duties.
ETA: For locals who might be interested, the share is coming from Stillman's Farm. Meat pickups are once a month in JP (Saturdays) or Brookline (Sundays). Veggie pickups are in a number of places around Boston on different days.

Hows about we try a half share and the meat this year and supplement with the studd coming out of our garden and the stuff I get at the market outside work? Talk it over with Siercia, would you?
