Week One for the #gabriolafoodhub #Local Veggie Box! The vegetables have been picked, rinsed and lovingly e-bike transported to kitchens across the island. Magic shelling peas, carrots, kale, lettuce, parsley, and fresh garlic from @good_earth_farm & @heartandsoil.farm. Gabriola farms working together. And we now have Veggie Boxes available for Week Two! Get the full season of 20 weeks (well 19 weeks since the 1st one is being eaten in delicious dishes right now) or choose Bi-weekly for a Veggie Box every second week. Subscribe to weekly fresh vegetables, carbon-sinking consumer choices, including nutrient-packed Microgreens, now using the Food Hub's new online store: https://gabriolafoodhub.localfoodmarketplace.com/Subscriptions #gabriolaisland #gabriola #superhyperlocalfarmfreshfood #localfood #smallscalefoodhub #foodhub #chooselocal
We have been under construction, fixing up cargo bikes and distribution channels, and we’re so excited about the arrival of Summer 2019. We have partnered with @LocalFoodMarketplace to build a new online shopping cart for produce and products -- and take the Food Hub to the next level. Very, very soon it will be even easier to buy food grown right here on #Gabriola and have it bike delivered fresh to homes, stores and restaurants. We are talking Super-Hyper-Local. And yes, that means Pepper the electric cargo bike is back in action. Before we bought our new bike trailer, the heavy goodness of our island vegetables overloaded a bearing ring and sent Pepper into the repair shop. It took some time, but Pepper is reborn: Version 2.3 has vastly improved battery storage, a sleeker deck, and more power to help us deliver the weekly Veg Box to every corner of Gabriola Island. Our Weekly Veg Box program is going full voltage ahead. We have the pleasure of working with with @heartandsoil.farm and @good_earth_farm again this year to deliver the most beautiful, local and freshest vegetables on the island. Join us for 21 weeks of Gabriola-grown goodness; sign-up available next week. As well, there are some new players in the Gabriola food scene this year and we are thrilled to be working with @groundup.cafe, who will be making great food with huge amounts of local vegetables at the Farmer’s Market on Saturdays, and @saltandco.ca., the island’s new food truck, which will be at Silva Bay all summer long. It’s going to be a great year, and it’s launching super hyper soon. . . . #gabriolaisland #gabriola #gabriolafoodhub #gabriolagrown #foodhub #larryvsharry #cargobike #superhyperlocalfarmfresh #smallfarm #localfoodmarketplace @ecdev8
It happened. The trailer is in action for the first time. Box delivery and to Silva Bay's new kitchen truck. Based on their order I bet @almostfamouschef and @nathaniel.w.green are going to dish up something delicious. Open this weekend. And the bike trailer is amazing! So smooth. Still learning to corner and back up... - - - - #35pointturn #farmingongabriola #gabriolaisland #gabriolafoodhub #larryvsharry #bikesatworktrailer #superhyperlocalfarmfreshfood #weeklyvegbox #bikedelivery #eatlocal
It was a wet spring. But then May was picture perfect. A lot of sun. Everything dried out and grew really well. And now? Everything is producing on Gabriola, and that means Good Earth and Heart & Soil farms have more fresh vegetables and greens available for the Food Hub's weekly Veg Box. The Veg Box contains the pick of the bumper crops of 2018. It's a great deal starting at $24 per week, and we have 10 more available right now. Go to gabriolafoodhub.com to sign-up. . . . . . . #farmingongabriola #gabriolaisland #Gabriola #localfood #cauliflower #wintersquash #waspnest #swallowsnest #larryvsharry #cargobike #gabriolafoodhub #weeklyvegbox #fresh #superhyperlocalfarmfreshfood
While the sun flower remains tall, it's head hangs over now. It's seeds tumble below and fly away with stellar j acrobats. After so many sun salutations the darker days are weighty with the first snow. The fields and farmers are almost at rest; our heads drooping, the woodstove is hot, the roast veg is in the oven, the alarm is not set and it's child's pose in the morning. It was a glorious season at Good Earth, and those seeds on the ground are our plans for next year. We will rise again in the spring and stay continually grateful for each seasons gifts; winter is books, farming conferences, and more time for friends. I hope we have helped fill your pantries with enough to nourish you until the next sun flowers sprout. #gabriolaisland #farmingongabriola #goodearthfarm #sunflower #feelinghappy #yupletsdothisagainnextyear
We are well into harvesting quite a bounty of winter squash and found this photo from a short while ago. The plants have all died back now leaving amazing food and so recently they were growing so vigorously with these sun searching spirals. The cycle of life might be more of a spiral. #skyspiral #farmingongabriola #gabriolaisland #gabriolafoodhub #wintersquash #spiraloflife #andthereisabugonit #entropy
