This Week in Video and Photos

April 11 Volunteer Day: A huge thanks from all of us at the Chatfield CSA to Kaiser!

 The day was filled with placing cabbage, broccoli and caulifower in the holes of the plastic and then planting them.

We planted a total of 2,500 feet of brassicas - more brassicas than we have ever planted at one time, thanks to our Kaiser volunteers!!
