2017 CSA Registration Information

2017 CSA Registration Information

Special Announcements!

Our 2017 CSA will be starting May 3rd instead of early April. Why? Because we are expecting. Josephine’s due date is March 28. We decided to push our start date to the first week in May.

We will be teaming up with Loch Holland Farm to offer broiler chickens to our CSA Members as we will no longer be raising our own broilers. See below for details.

Already know what you want? Go straight to our registration page here.

OUR 2017 CSA
We will be accepting 100 CSA membership in 2017.  Small shares cost $15.45 per week, and are good for households of two people, or even a sinlge vegetable maniac.  Full shares ($25.75 per week) are ideal for households of two or three, or families with a couple small children.  We offer multiple paying options and discounts. You will find specifics on the registration page.

We have divided our CSA into three seasons, Spring, Summer and Fall.

Spring Share:  May 3 through July 1 Full Share $231.75 or Small Share $139.05

Our spring CSA runs 9 weeks.   Over the course of the spring, you can expect head lettuce, salad mix, spring onions, cabbage, kohlrabi, kale, turnip roots, beets, changing over to potatoes, cabbage, squash, eggplants, cucumber carrots and more. 

Summer Share:  July 5 through September 2 Full Share $231.75 or Small Share $139.05

Our summer CSA runs 9 weeks.  Over the course of the summer, you can expect potatoes, carrots, cucumbers, squash, okra, onions, tomatoes, sweet pepper, eggplant, melons, garlic and more.

Fall Share:  September 6 through November 18 Full Share $283.25 or Small Share $169.95

Our fall CSA runs 11 weeks.  Over the course of the fall, you can expect cucumbers, squash, okra, tomatoes, peppers, eggplant, melons, root vegetables, salad mix, lettuce, various greens, snow and snap peas, cabbage, broccoli, kohlrabi, sweet potatoes, and winter squash.  

Pasture Raised Meat and Eggs
Members of our 2017 vegetable CSA can choose to add our farm fresh eggs to their shares and/or Loch Holland Farm whole broilers. These add ons are only available to members who commit to all three seasons.

(Eggs SOLD OUT for 2017) Egg Shares for 2017: Full Egg Share $139.05 or Half Egg Share $69.50

Our laying flock lives in a mobile chicken coop that we move around so that they always have access to plenty of insects, grass seeds and other snacks. As the number of eggs that our chickens lay varies continuously throughout the year, egg share members will receive a proportion of all the eggs laid in a given week.  There will be extra eggs in spring, and fewer eggs in October and November as the hens start preparing for winter.  We expect that to average out to one dozen per week over the course of the season for Full Egg Share members, and a half dozen per week for Half Egg Share members.         

Whole Broilers for 2017:  May through November $144.20

We also offer pasture raised Freedom Ranger broiler chickens to our CSA members.  Loch Holland Farm raises the same breed from the same hatchery we did previously. Their broilers are never given antibiotics, have constant access to pasture from 2 or 3 weeks old, and are even processed right on their farm.  A Broiler Chicken share includes one whole, frozen chicken per month (4.0 to 4.5 lbs chicken, $20.60/month), delivered on the first week of each month.

Goat meat is available Saturdays at our Cooper Young Community Farmers Market booth and at the farm.
