By purchasing a share you will be entitled to a weekly portion of our harvest throughout the growing season. You will receive a wide variety of delicious and nutritious, farm fresh produce! Members pay at the beginning of the growing season and share both the rewards and risks of farming, such as ?bumper? crops or ?bummer? crops (due to pests or bad weather).How much produce will I get? Each week your share will contain between 6 and 18 lbs. of produce depending on crop availability. The overall average will be approximately 15 lbs. How long is the growing season? 20 weeks, from June to October (plus an end-of-the-season surplus pick-up).
