What Is a CSA?

I’m glad you asked! CSA stands for Community Supported Agriculture and is just one of the many ways customers who believe in “real food” can support a farmer.

You get what is being harvested each week. It changes from week to week and season to season. And year to year. Some years, the weather defeats us and you may not get a certain crop. Other years, there might be an abundant crop of strawberries and you get extra!

But a CSA is not the only way to get fresh, local produce from our farm to your table.
It’s best to go into the decision with your eyes wide open, and see if your expectations match the experience that a CSA will give you.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s in my share? How can I find out?

Saturday night we will email a tentative list of what will be in the shares the following week. On Tuesday we will post in our Facebook group, on the blog, and in your CSA account what we are planning on putting in the shares (sometimes plans go awry and you’ll receive a substitution).

I’ve never tried a CSA before. Can I try for only one or two weeks?

Try a small share. You can change from weekly to bi-weekly, or from bi-weekly to weekly, depending on how you get through the food.

What if I want some additional items along with my share?

Go to the “Add-Ons” section of the store and you can select from a variety of items that you can add to your box. You can choose one-time delivery, bi-weekly, weekly, or monthly delivery. Your credit card is charged the week that the extra items are picked up. You must order at least 3 days before your next pick up day.

What if I need to change my pickup? To a different day, to every other week, or while we are away on vacation?

Go to your account and change the frequency of delivery. This will automatically extend your subscription so you still receive all your deliveries, just over a longer period of time. If you have auto-renew, it changes when your card is charged according to the new schedule.

What are the order deadlines for add-ons or changes?

We need to have your order in 3 days before your next scheduled pick up. Any orders placed less than 3 days before your pick up will be added to your share the following week. For example, if you order a dozen eggs on Tuesday and your pick up is on Wednesday, you will receive your eggs a week from Wednesday.

Are there refunds if I forget to pick up my share or if I forgot to tell you I went on vacation?

Sorry, you can only put a hold on your box or change the pick-up day in advance. Boxes at drop-off points have already been delivered and we cannot retrieve them. Delivery locations have committed to holding onto your share for only the hours specified; they are under no obligation to keep your share past closing. There is no refund for shares which have already been packed and delivered.

Enjoy peace of mind knowing you're serving healthy, pesticide-free meals.
