What CSA Option is right for me?
The Traditional CSA Just like it's name, our Traditional CSA is the one we've been running since day 1 in 2011. We harvest what is available and CSA members are able to choose what they want to make up their share within limits. The pick your own crops are an added bonus. The opportunity to come to the farm regularly offers a connection to the land and a better understanding of how the food is being grown. Choose Main Season or Spring Season or Both!
The Pick Your Own Flower CSA is for the true flower lover who will have exclusive access to a greatly expanded flower garden and will share in our journey as we continue to explore growing flowers professionally. We will provide the vessel, you bring your favorite clippers! Main Season Traditional CSA Share members will continue to have access to pick your own zinnias, the same as it's always been.
The Market CSA offers the greatest flexibility-you can come anytime you want to the farmers markets or to the farmstand (when they are open of course!) and choose whatever produce is available at the stand that day. You will not be limited to certain amounts of any one crop and if you are away on vacation or not able to come to a market on any given weekend you will still have the same amount of credit on your account to use the next time you can make it. NEW this year, Market CSA members can come to the farmstand in Wantage on Saturday mornings and use your credit there, both for produce in the stand and for pick your own crops, when available.
Both CSA options benefit the farmers in the same way-by paying ahead of time for your produce you help us to purchase necessary supplies to begin the season.
