Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) is an opportunity for people who like to eat fruits and vegetables (that would be you) and people who grow the same (that would be us) to join in partnership so that all can benefit.
What it means to you:
What you can expect in your Harvest Box
Our 2010 Harvest Box should look very similar to last year’s box. Our box relies heavily on familiar items. You can expect tomatoes, potatoes, onions or garlic, and fruit nearly every week. Salad mix, lettuce, or other salad greens will generally be in each box. Salad mix appears regularly in all boxes at no extra charge. The balance of the box will be a carefully selected seasonal assortment of vegetables, fruits, greens, roots, and herbs. Recipes are provided for less familiar vegetables.
We may enhance the variety of organic fruits and
vegetables
in your box by collaborating with a few of our friends who grow high
quality
organic produce.
New in 2010
During 2009, we purchased some additional land
adjacent to our farm. Although we have already started farming this new
piece by all the same methods we use on our home place, the new land
will not be Certified Organic until spring 2012. For the next two
seasons, crops grown on this new land will be identified in the
newsletter as transitional.
What was in each box last year?
check our Harvest Box Newsletters to
see the items and quantities in each box last year.
Early Winter Box
There
will be no separate Early Winter Box
this year.
Our regular
membership season is June through November.
We are happy to add members during the season. Call the farm for
information on our pro-rated
membership fee if you are joining after the start of the season.
