Every Friday afternoon, we finalize the CSA box contents for the following week. (This is why you can customize your box starting on Saturday morning!). On Tuesday afternoons, once the first of the CSA box contents have been harvested, our photographer Scott goes to our Hergotz location and snaps a photo of the weekly box contents which we post on our website and social media. This past Tuesday, Scott captured the excitement of the day: volunteers helping Lyndsie paint one of our new delivery vehicles. Faceless white van, no more!

Long-time JBG team member Lyndsie is heading up this paint project. She may be masked, but we'd recognize that side pony anywhere. Photo by Scott David Gordon.

Lyndsie used transparencies and an old-school projector to trace the designs onto our vans. Photo by Scott David Gordon.

As you may know, we've put a pause on our volunteer program for the past 6 months. We've made an exception for this special project, and it feels wonderful to welcome so new faces to the farm. Photo by Scott David Gordon.

We love the transformation from a boring white van to a branded veggie mobile, bright with color and ripe with potential! Photo by Scott David Gordon.

Even though our veggies are now technically grown at the farm, they started off as homegrown offerings from Brenton's backyard on Holly Street. Photo by Scott David Gordon.
