Crystal Spring CSA » Shares

What is in a share?

Each week’s offering of vegetables is different. As the season allows, we will strive to bring as much diversity and quantity to your weekly share as possible and will constantly push the envelope of what is possible during the growing season.

A single share is designed to meet the fresh vegetable needs of 2 – 3 non-vegetarian adults or 1-2 vegetarian adults. Depending on the season, the contents will vary between 4 and 18 pounds of vegetables every pick up (11 pounds average). Members will also be entitled to a “U-Pick” field featuring herbs, flowers, and vegetables that you can harvest during distribution hours and all day on Sundays.

Weekly Farm Newsletter

The newsletter enhances each week’s share. (Sent out electronically to all members, also available in hard copy at distribution.) The farmer takes valuable time each week to give a report to the members about the various weekly developments through the ever-changing farm season. We also include recipe with each newsletter. For past newsletters and recipes, see the links to the right.

Harvest Time!

Your membership entitles you to pick up your share one time each week. Distribution days are Tuesdays or Fridays, 3:30-6:30 at the farm. You do not have to commit to the same day each week; come which ever day is more convenient for you each week.

What if I’m on vacation?

Members are welcome to have neighbors or friends pick-up their share at the farm if they are not able.
