For THE WIFE who Knits: Martha Vineyard CSA Farms
February 22nd, 2009 — Things I Love
Nothing quite beats something hand-knit. Unless, it’s hand-knit with wool from sheep you raised yourself. No need to whip out the staff and don the bonnet (unless you want to), you can channel your inner Bo Peep by joining the Martha’s Vineyard or Hudson Valley Fiber Farm’s Yarn CSA. For a minimal fee, equivalent to what you would spend on really nice yarn anyway, you can get a share of fluffiness that can be traced back to Sassafrass, Miss Victoria, or any of the other organically-grazed Angora goats and Babydoll sheep that make up the farms’ flocks.
They Price Their Yarn CSA at $150 per share. Of course you’re welcome to buy as many shares as you like (while they last!) and a Yarn CSA share makes a great gift for all the knitters and crocheters in your life. If you’re a spinner’s share you can purchase a “spinner’s share” in the form of raw fleece or roving.Their farms practices humane animal husbandry, They are “predator friendly” and none of their animals are ever sold for meat. The sheep and goats graze on organic pasture 9 months out of the year. They supplement with quality hay and a custom-made whole grain ration.
And their goats are just too cute for words… I think i’ll ask for one for my birthday, Even though i dont knit. One might look quite cute in the front yard to greet house guests
The Perfect Gift for The Person who has Everything!

Nudo is an olive grove. And part of it can be yours.
Adopt one of its trees for a year and you’ll receive all the produce from your tree. Imagine dunking your bread in your own oil from your own tree thousands of miles away on a hillside in Italy.
It’s delicious, it’s good for the world and you get to show off to your friends.
Adopt an olive tree.
Like other types of farming olive growing is becoming more and more mechanised. This is leading to soil erosion and blander, mass produced oil. We make olive oil with special care, and it’s a team effort. Your involvement will help to support small scale, artisanal farming.
Once you’ve chosen and adopted a tree, the first thing you’ll receive is an adoption certificate, to make you official, and your tree information booklet. Then over the course of the year you’ll receive two more packages, one in the spring and one in the autumn, containing all the produce from your tree.
If you let us know, we can send the adoption certificate and booklet straight to you, so you can hand it over yourself. Or We’ll send it straight to the lucky recipient. They Make Great Wedding or Birthday Presents
For just £65 (+ postage & packaging) you’ll receive 3 packages over the year:
1. Spring package (all the extra virgin olive oil from your tree)
2. Autumn package (three flavoured extra virgin olive oils)
3. Personalised adoption certificate and booklet about your tree
