in a micro share. Of those items we specify one and you get to choose the rest. Yes, that’s right, choose. Choice is what sets us apart from most other CSA’s. Almost everything* on our farmer’s market display is up for grabs. You don’t have to take tomatoes if you don’t need them. If you don’t like bok choi - that’s fine with us.

You can also expect shares to change with the seasons. Historically, July, August, and September bring large shares full of the farm’s bounty while those of April and May lack some in variety. We take that into account when planning prices, but you’ll need to be aware of that fact.

We do know that it can be hard to visualize quantities when deciding which share to purchase. For this reason, we’ve created a list below of sample CSA shares by month. You can also see the two most recent shares on the right. Finally, check out CSA member Christine Hmiel’s blog posts on her CSA share during the summer of 2011.
