The Observation Deck

Dear Neighbors,

This is a friendly reminder that both of the Community Supported Agriculture programs offered through the LEAF community are still taking new shareholders.

Covered Bridge Gardens CSA registration does have a deadline. This farm needs to have a handle on how many shareholders they will have for Lakewood by May 31st. Registration forms are available at:

For any of you who are not familiar with this program, it is WONDERFUL! Mich and Kay Prochko will greet you each week with a delicious assortment fresh from their farm. They provide a weekly newsletter with information and recipes.


City Fresh also still has space for the Lakewood Fresh Stop.
registration for this program is available at:

You can always check out www.leafcommunity.org for more information about thes programs. Or you can PM me.

Looking forward to another year of fresh produce in Lakewood

What is the ballpark start date for the fresh stop?


On a related note, does anyone know when the farmers' market usually begins?

Hi Brad (and everyone!),

The first week for City Fresh will be June 5.
For Covered Bridge Gardens, June 19th.

According to the city's website, the farmer's market begins on June 4th.

Reminder,

Those interested in volunteering with LEAF this summer are invited to a meeting tonight at the Lakewood Library, main branch auditorium at 6pm.

You will learn about various LEAF related volunteer opportunities and be able to ask questions.

Thanks ~Annie
