It’s hard to believe that the spring growing season is about to begin.  Thanks for sticking with us through the darkest months of the year.  Brighter days are on the horizon! 

We’ve done a lot of thinking this winter about how we want the CSA to look, and we’re making a few changes.   Everything you love about the CSA stays: weekly billing, flexible delivery options, grocery add-ons, and seasonal recipes.  

Here’s what’s different: You’ve asked for more flexibility in what’s actually in your weekly share.  Whether you’re navigating food allergies, cooking for one, or shopping for ten, there’s no one-size-fits-all when it comes to food.  That makes a pre-set box challenging. 

We heard you.  We listened.  

Introducing CSA Flex: a weekly CSA box with built-in flexibility.  Each share has a base share of 4-6 vegetables and/or fruit, with a weekly $10 credit to the Marketplace.  

Use the Flex Credit for additional vegetables of your choice, spend it on grocery add-ons like local wine or grass-fed beef, or stock up on credits for a special occasion.  

Your Marketplace Rewards Credits and the CSA Flex credits will stack.  The more you buy, the more credits you can earn.  

Buy what you want, when you want.  We’ll be stocking up the Marketplace produce selection with plenty of diversity year-round to keep your options open.  

Learn more about the CSA Flex model here.

The old CSA model isn’t going anywhere.  We’re renaming it the CSA Basic, and it will have the same pre-set 6-8 portions of veggies/fruit as last season.  Same perks as always.  

The main difference here is that it will run year-round.  If you want to skip a month or more, or pause for an indeterminate period of time, simply let us know and we’ll adjust things accordingly.

We’ll be taking a few short breaks throughout the year to help us transition from one season to another.  Just a little breathing room for us on the ground.  There won’t be deliveries during the breaks, so be sure to stock up in advance:

• First two weeks of April
• One week in June (dates to be announced) 
• One week in early August (dates to be announced) 
• Last two weeks of December

The CSA starts April 15.  As an existing Member, you don’t have to re-signup, simply contact us directly.  Please let us know if you’d like to continue as a CSA Flex or CSA Basic member by April 2.

If we have not heard from you by April 3, your membership will default to the CSA Flex going forward.
