How our CSA works:
Each week you receive
between 8-15 items, depending on what is seasonally available. We
grow over 70 vegetables and fruits, starting in the spring with sweet
peas, carrots, lettuce, broccoli, leeks, spring onions, greens, and beets. In
summer we have an abundance of squash, zucchini, cucumbers, potatoes,
tomatoes, beans, sweet corn, melons, and
blackberries to name a few. The fall and winter season brings us back
around to the cool-weather crops of carrots, beets, lettuce, broccoli,
cabbage, kale, other greens, sweet potatoes, winter squash, pumpkins, and a lot
more! Garlic, onions, and potatoes are dug in the summer, stored, and
given to the CSA throughout the season.
Instead of the conventional "pre-made" CSA share, we arrange the produce market style. Each item will have an amount attached to it (for example, Cucumbers - take 5) and shareholders can pick their 5 favorite cucumbers.
We find that this CSA model allows members
to skip over items they may not want as much of, while giving them the
opportunity to take more of select items.
CSA Pick up at the farm in July.
