Sign Up For 2016 Late Fall and 2017 Winter CSAs
By Derek McGeehan
It's time to sign up for our 5th annual
Late Fall CSA as well as our inaugural
Winter CSA to receive your supply of local and organic produce through the dark winter months!
Enrollment in these seasons is limited and will be filled on a first-come first-serve basis. Current Main Season CSA shareholders will be given priority until November 1, 2016, when the general public will be able to enroll. We want to fill these CSA seasons with our current members but need to reach a critical mass for these seasons to run successfully.
Also, we're currently re-evaluating the best pick up day/time for Fall and Winter seasons, so please let us know if our proposed schedule does not work for you. See below for details!
To participate in these seasons, please
Log in to the website and click the green 'Join' buttons on the left hand side of your member page.
We're currently filling up our protective hoop house, high tunnel, and greenhouse with lettuce mix, arugula, kale, spinach, scallions, chard, mizuna, and mustard mix to ensure a steady supply of fresh greens through the winter! Beat the cold and flu season by eating the nutritionally beneficial crops that we grow!
