Your basket will contain 6-9 items depending on weekly harvest.

Baskets are provided for 12 weeks depending on the growing season. Approximately June 30th - September 17th.

Additional items can be added to your basket each week. A password will be provided so you can enter the CSA Member Store page.

How Our CSA Program Works
-
When you join our CSA program you will receive your share (veggie basket) each week during the designated dates of the program. Unless mother nature says otherwise.
-
Your baskets will be greens heavy especially in the beginning of the growing season. As the weather warms up and other vegetables reach harvesting age some greens will be replaced with other items, but you will always get greens in your baskets.
-
There are two options to pay for this year's CSA share. Pay in full or pay in two payments.
-
When you sign up, you will select the payment option of your choice and the pickup location where you will pick up your veggie basket each week.
-
When you sign up, on your confirmation page you will see the password you will use to get into the CSA Member Store. You need to keep this password so you have it when the program starts. Access to the CSA Member Store page will allow you to view the list of items in your basket each week. It also allows you to purchase any additional add on items that you may want that week, without a required minimum purchase amount; such as on our public online store.
-
On Wednesdays, you can go to the CSA Member Store page to see the updated list of what will be in your veggie basket that week. This would be the perfect time to purchase any add on items to be included in that week's veggie basket.
-
Hooray, you will have a variety of fresh, home-grown vegetables to enjoy with your family and friends!
