You can add on anything in our store for delivery as part of your home delivery csa for no delivery charge.  Orders are due by Sunday Morning at 9:00 am.  This gives us time to prepare, bake and pack your order to make it out for delivery on Tuesdays.

 

We have had a delivery van issue and are making our big van pull double duty for deliveries this year.  That is why we have moved our day to Tuesday.  We apologize for any issues relating to the day change.

Here is our basic description for your reference.

Our newly designed CSA will complement our off season biweekly delivery schedule.

Our Big Box Bushel of produce is filled  with at least 10 bunches or quarts of produce.    We do have crop failures from time to time that can impact availability.

The first week of biweekly delivery will be either July 7 or July 14 depending on where your home is within our delivery area. It will continue biweekly for 8 deliveries and end in October. The shares include at least ten items from our garden, and have the same quality you have come to expect.

The fruit shares this coming year will only be tree fruits. We will start with cherries, plums and apricots. Peaches, plums and nectarines will be our summer fruits. Apples, pears and prune plums will finish out the fall.

Vacation share cancelations will be converted to a market CSA account balance instead of makeup shares. This value will allow you to get things from market or order items from our website for delivery with a share delivery. We need to know a week ahead of time to do this so we don’t pick and pack your share and waste the produce. Confusion and record keeping around vacations has been a huge challenge for us and we needed to make it easier for everyone.

We are excited to kick off our 12th year of home delivery and hope we have a successful season.
