FULL WEEKLY SHARE

Each Full Weekly Share (equivalent to full grocery bag or more) consists of freshly harvested, superbly cleaned, organic vegetables. We have found that one Full Weekly Share is ideal for a family of three or four who expect to eat a lot of vegetables, or a larger family with an average amount of vegetables in their diet. If you are concerned about being able to consume a full share of vegetables each week, consider finding someone to split with: sharing is encouraged!

Possible seasonal vegetables offered will include a bounty of assorted mature and baby kale, lettuces, salad mixes, Swiss chard, mustard greens, spinach, heirloom tomatoes, root vegetables, summer and winter squashes, onions, leeks, cabbage, cucumbers, eggplant, assorted beans, snap peas, bell and hot peppers, a variety of herbs and more!

Spring/Summar               15 weeks               $375​

Fall/Winter                      10 weeks               $250   

EVERY-OTHER-WEEK SHARE

The same size as the Full Weekly Share, but picked up half as often….every-other week! This share was designed for smaller families or individuals who may not be able to utilize the full-sized share. The key to using this share affectively is to use the produce that will wilt or spoil quickest first (such as lettuce or spinach), saving hearty vegetables (such as potatoes or collards) for later use.

WHAT ELSE IS NEW THIS YEAR?

FARM SPECIALS!!!

Add-Ons:  We were inspired by your creativity! Throughout the growing and harvesting season, we will be offering add-ons for an additional fee on pick up day. Notifications of upcoming farm “specials” will be emailed to you the week before they occur (because this is a new venture, Add-Ons will not be offered every week). Add-ons could be soups, salads, sweets, or other creative and yummy ideas we have!

You Pick Days:  The farm will be having days for shareholders to come in and pick certain produce at no extra charge on a first come/first serve basis during the harvesting season. The most likely crops being offered for these days will be cherry tomatoes and green beans. All we ask in return is that you pick only what you will use.

NEW “MARKET-STYLE” PICK UP DAYS!!! **

We are adopting a new format for the FULL SHARE and EVERY-OTHER-WEEK SHARE. When you come in to pick up your CSA share, the produce will be in baskets or bins. The “MENU”, or amounts available to each shareholder will be prominently displayed. Each shareholder will sign in, then proceed to fill their market bags with produce, according to the menu.

For example, the menu may say “4 pounds of greens, 4 summer squash, 2 eggplant, and 6 onions”. With this you could take 4 pounds of all one type green or mix it up and combine several types to total the 4 pounds! Moving on to the summer squash, you see both zucchini and yellow crooked neck…take a total of any four you wish! Don’t worry…if this is a bit confusing we will walk you through the process each pick up day until you feel confident!

**Market-Style is not available for those choosing the delivery option. Those choosing to have their share delivered will have a variety of all produce being offered prepackaged and delivered to their door. 

“LEAVE ONE/TAKE ONE” TABLE 

Don’t care for eggplant? There will be a special table to “leave one/take one”. You can leave that eggplant on the table and grab the onions someone else put there to replace it!

Community Supportive Agriculture (CSA) plans provides the community with the opportunity to purchase shares of the produce grown in the McLaughlin Grows Urban Farm. We offer many different plans, in order that best accommodate you and your family’s needs. The CSA plans rang from small to larger shares, spring/summer or fall, and every week or every other week pick-up dates. All the different options are listed below
