We are gearing up for our growing season here at Hidden Villa and are excited to continue our partnership with the Community Services Agency of Mountain View, providing them with consistent deliveries of fresh fruits and vegetables throughout the summer months. In a November 2013 Los Altos Town Crier article, a CSA of Mountain View client said, "Food is very expensive, so the healthful food that they provide is something I appreciate a lot. It’s really helpful – vegetables, rice, beans, things like that,” he said. “It’s the vegetables I value most.” We are proud to continue this partnership and provide healthy, local, fresh food to our neighbors in the community.
As many of you are aware we are experience a very serious drought throughout California. At Hidden Villa our farm operation uses a shallow well for all of our agricultural water supply. This year we have received 12.5 inches of rain, counting the rain that fell just hours ago. We're hoping that the rain continues to strengthen up our cover crops, an important aspect of organic farming that helps replenish the soil with sufficient amounts of nitrogen. As we continue to prepare for this coming season we see this as an opportunity for you to join us and the Community Services Agency of Mountain View in weathering this drought, together.
We are incredibly grateful for your support and hope that you will rally with us and our farm!
