Home delivery drivers do not enter buildings and food is left in containers provided by the members (like a beach cooler).

Meat:

We look for small producers using sustainable practices feeding organic or local or gmo-free feed. For example, your 100% grassfed beef may not be certified, but it is raised on lush beautiful pasture. The pork raised here at LotFotL is not certified organic, but fed organic feed and raised on pasture. We choose meat that we would and do feed to our own family.

What happened to the part-time produce share?
The Part-Time Produce program was designed for folks to dip their toes into CSA. We are asking folks that liked that program to consider a slightly deeper commitment with us and consider coming it at the Pitchfork Level. This allows for complete flexibility of what items you order from us, making it easy to spend the $40/wk with us. Our farm is needing to adapt to the changing times. The new programming gives our farm the ability to streamline our programming so we can be efficient, use our technology resources the way they were made to be used, and put our energy into growing your food.
What produce is in the winter csa?
Below is a sample of some prices and items you might see in the winter csa program. Produce is most abundant during the first 2 months of the program and there is less variety later in the season.
