    We now offer full shares and half shares! Each membership will also provide an additional amount to show our appreciation for your support!

    A new and exciting change this year is that all CSA members will be able to choose their own produce each week! That means no pre-bagging and you have more choice on the quantity of items you purchase each week! Perfect for weeks when you will be going away for vacation or when you are hosting parties at home! The ability to choose your own is a definite plus and one that sets us at Gilson’s apart! Throughout June and October we will have a variety of in-season herbs and produce available for you to pick and choose!

    ** We have several local pick up days available! The following days are available for members to choose for pick up at our Herb Lyceum location at 368 Main St, Groton MA:

    - Tuesdays 3-7pm
    - Thursdays 11-3pm
    - Saturdays 11-3pm

    For memembers in the Boston area, we will have pick up available at our Prudential Farmers Market which runs on Thursdays from 11-6pm. We recommend getting there as early as possible to have the widest and most selection to choose from!

A little about Gilson's (The Herb Lyceum)
The Herb Lyceum at Gilson's Farm is host to dinners every Friday and Saturday nights with meals made fresh by our own Chef, using our own fresh in-season herbs and produce. At our Potager Farm, we grow a variety of fresh produce and herbs. We also have a CSA available (please see website for more details, or contact us)! What sets our CSA apart, is that YOU get to choose what and how much of each or any herbs or produce you want each week. Your membership fee is like a credit with us, and each week we deduct how much you use. The benefits of this set up is that you are more in control with what you get each week (your choice of herbs/produce and the quantity!) and if you go on vacation or host a party you are able to get more or less depending on your needs! We also participate in many farmers markets around the Boston area.
