Frequently Asked Questions

What do you get for your CSA membership of  $195?

 you get back in value $220 over the course of the year - so we are giving a great value.

Why is this important to attract new members?

Your membership allows us to purchase the inputs -  $$$$$$  - lots of expenses are associated with planting a field of heirloom tomatoes, vegetables.  The earlier you sign up  - the more fruitful our fields will be.

What are the advantages for farms in our C i r c l e CSA?

By attracting more local direct farm buyers - it costs us less -  in packaging, distribution, and advertising - a major advantage when you buy directly from small family farms in the form of a CSA!
