Do you enjoy fresh produce but find it difficult to make it to a local farmer’s market?
Do you go to a local farmer’s market but your favorite items are sold out by the time you get there?
Do you like to cook with the freshest ingredients but don’t have time or space for a garden of your own?
If you answered YES to any of these questions then our FarmShare program is for you!
What Is A CSA Progam?
A CSA or Community Supported Agriculture program is a subscription service connecting local farms with members. Members pay a seasonal subscription fee and in return they receive a box of farm fresh produce (their “share”) every week throughout the program’s season.
What Do I Get With My Share?
Members and choose from a Full Share or a Half Share. A Full Share contains 6 – 7 days of produce for 4 people (or 2 that eat a plant centric diet). Half Shares contain 6 – 7 days of produce for 2 people (or 1 person that eats a plant centric diet).
What Can I Expect Each Week?
Here are some things you can expect to see in your boxes throughout the season
Other items may include: Heirloom Bell and Hot Peppers, Heirloom Cucumbers, Summer and Winter Squashes, Beets, Potatoes, Artisanal Breads, Local Honey, Free Range /Non-GMO Eggs, Fresh Cut Flowers and more…
