How does it work? We, the farmers, are responsible for the planting, tending and harvesting of the crops. Farm members buy a share of our harvest in advance of the growing season. This allows us to purchase seeds and other supplies when needed. It also relieves us of the need to market our produce at a time of the year when our energy is best spent growing vegetables. Each week during the growing season members pick up their share of the harvest.
What can I expect? Each week from mid May until late September there will be a variety of fresh, in-season vegetables in the harvest. You will receive as much variety and quantity as conditions allow. The earliest harvests are limited to leafy greens, salad makings and some herbs. Mid summer harvests bulge with veggies in large variety and quantity. Most seasons there are some crops that do exceptionally well and others that produce less than expected. As partners in agriculture we share the benefits of bumper crops and the risks of a crop failure due to extreme weather or bugs.We are committed to responsible use of precious agricultural land. Our produce is grown without synthetic fertilizers, we are Certified Naturally Grown.
We make use of compost, cover crops, and crop rotation to promote healthy soil and plants. Our goal is to sustain the environment while building community at the same time.
