Artemisia CSA 2023

“CSA” stands for “Community Supported Agriculture.” CSAs are agreements between a farm and members of their community in which individuals pay for a “share” of farm produce. Sometimes this is paid for in one lump sum. Other times, it’s paid for in ongoing increments. The goal of a CSA model is to supply small farms with a steady, predictable source of income while connecting the community directly with their local foodweb.

Weekly box of mostly vegetables and occasionally fruit (typically 7-8 items). 
Every week is a different selection of what's in season.

This is by no means a comprehensive list. We aim to offer unique variety from week to week.

In addition to commonly cultivated vegetables, we also will include native crops (such as dandelion, nettles, or chickweed, for example). Bringing these crops into the kitchen and onto our plates is an integral building block in the structure of sustainable living.

If you would prefer to pickup your CSA share, you can pickup at one of three locations:

Note: Some Marketplace items (wines, meats, etc.) may not be available for those Members who pickup at Domestique or Trace.

 

Unlike a traditional CSA, where you are committing to a share every week, we understand that modern life is varied. Vacations, unexpected events, and weeks that are just too busy to get through last week's share: life just happens.  That's why we make it easy.  You can choose to skip any week of your membership for any reason and you're not charged for the weeks you skip.  Once you're signed up, simply log into your account and choose which weeks you want to skip.

There is also the option to donate your share to The People's CSA, the 501c3 founded by Kelly and Andrew to make sure that those in need in our region have access to fresh produce.  If you're able, consider donating your share rather than skipping.  Your donation will be a tax-deductible contribution to the organization and The People's CSA will generate a report for you at the end of the year for your records, so there's no extra work to remember when you donated.

Our weekly newsletter includes the following:

• A list of the items in your weekly share.
• Recipe ideas and tips on how to prepare your veggies.
• Month-long culinary themes centered around what’s in season.

Enhance your culinary adventures with a variety of locally-sourced grocery items including meats, dairy, eggs, plant-based proteins, wine, bread, and more.

Order anytime throughout the week from the Marketplace and have your order delivered with your CSA share. No extra delivery fees. No minimums.

Every CSA Membership includes free access to the Recipe Box — our database of recipes for navigating the veggies in your share and exploring new culinary horizons.
