SUMMER CSA
Season: June-October (22 weeks)
Cost: Full $675/Small $400
The summer CSA is a market-style, choice-based share. Each week, you'll get to choose what you want from among 6-15 different items available. We grow over thirty kinds of vegetables, everything from tomatoes and green beans to kohlrabi and rutabaga.
The amount of food in the share each week varies with the season, but it will be about 7-14 different items for full shares and 5-10 for small shares. Full shares are designed to feed 2 omnivorous adults or a family of four. Small shares are designed for individuals and couples who eat fewer vegetables.
November CSA
Season: 2 Saturdays in November
Cost: Full $150/Small $90
The November CSA will provide your family with plenty of food for the month of November (as well as enough extra produce for your Thanksgiving feast) in two easy, choice-based pickups. At each pickup, you'll have the opportunity to select exactly what vegetables you want from a wide variety of winter roots, hardy greens, and other storage crops. Full shares will get to choose between 12-17 items at each pickup; small shares will choose 7-10. The larger of the two pickups will be on the Saturday before Thanksgiving.
Flower Share
Season: July-September (10 weeks)
Cost: $120
Each week, in addition to your vegetables, take home a beautiful, freshly arranged flower bouquet. Our flowers are always harvested the day of the share or the day before, ensuring quality and freshness. Flowers vary throughout the season, but you can expect to take home celosia, zinnias, dahlias, snapdragons, and more. It's a great way to bring a little bit of summer into the house!
