2023 Regular Season Choice CSA
The most flexible CSA program ever. Now you can choose local and sustainable foods on your terms and still feel good about what you eat and where you get it.
Choose the level that you want to invest and spend your return as credits on our online farm store throughout your season. Program foods are either grown on the farm or sourced locally. Our farm values and looks for small scale producers that use organic and/or sustainable methods. It is our mission to build community around local sustainable food.

FAQ:
Q: Is all of your food organic? The veggies grown on our farm are certified organic and we buy from organic growers. Any not certified items are always disclosed. Meat, cheese, eggs, bread, and other items are locally produced but not always organic. Meat is either organically fed or grass-fed and/or pastured.
Q: What program is right for me? This can be a difficult question to answer because everyone has different eating habits. Farmers Tim and April ordered every week during the winter season and easily averaged $90 plus/wk. Our summer share averages closer to $115/wk because there is more available. We do cook regularly and we do eat meat.

Choice Add-On Packages
WHAT IF I RUN OUT OF CREDITS:
Members who invest at Level 3 for $2000 can continue to order after credits have run out and have FULL access to everything we offer for the full season.
Those that invest at Level 1 ($850) or Level 2 ($1300) are invited to continue ordering, from a LIMITED menu. So, although they do not have access to everything, we do make available things that we have unlimited access to or excess of.
We charge member’s credit cards for orders placed from the menu after credits have run out.
HOME DELIVERY ADD ON PACKAGE:
Members can receive home delivery for any sized package for an additional $160.
FOOD EQUITY PROGRAM:
We continue to build community through local and sustainable food. The food equity program is designed to build and support a more diverse community and make food more accessible to everyone. Members who value this concept and want to contribute financially may do so. Donations will go toward reducing the costs of our food for those who express a desire and need for financial assistance.
