OUR FARMERS STAND FOR
Quality
We harvest, wash, and handle our vegetables with love, care and cleanliness. We are committed to food safety practices following FYSSMA protocols and water testing. We take great pride in washing the veggies so they arrive beautiful and alive.
Freshness
Fresh veggies are selected and harvested from our North Fork farm fields less than 48 hours before we pack and deliver them to your neighborhood dropsite. No shipping across the country which means your food is still full of life and flavor.
Flavor
When you grow vegetables in soil that is healthy and harvest them right before eating, the flavor of them is far superior to grocery store veggies. Fresh food tastes better, and we make sure we give you the freshest tastiest veggies you’ve ever had.
Diversity
We grow over 300 different heirloom & organic NON GMO varieties of vegetables so you can taste new flavors, new colors, and new veggies! From the neighborhoods we feed to the staff we employ, we value diversity.
WHAT TO EXPECT
We offer two size shares, Partial and Full. The full share contains the full diversity of what we grow and have available week by week. The partial share contains about 2/3 of the full share items. See below to get an idea of how we try to structure the share contents each week. Of course this depends on the season, what’s growing well, and many more factors.
PARTIAL SHARE CONTENTS: 6-7 ITEMS PER WEEK
FULL SHARE 8-9 ITEMS PER WEEK
WEEK 14 CSA FULL SHARE
FAQs
How do I know what to do with the veggies?
We send you a newsletter every week with recipes, tips and storage suggestions for the veggies in the share. We will also give you access to our CSA member area on our new website with videos, tutorials and all sorts of resources that will help guide you.
What if I miss a week?
We donate the shares that are not picked up every week at the dropsite to people in need, the hosting site Georgias place as well. If you can’t pickup or are on vacation, you can have a friend or family member get the share for you that week! We do not hold them, or double up the following week.
How do I choose between partial or full share?
Partial shares are great for people who are just starting out with the CSA, are a single person, or a couple who eat out a lot. It really comes down to how often you cook and eat at home, and how much of your meal is dominated by veggies. I suggest a full share for families or people looking to actively increase their veggie consumption.
I am picky with veggies, should I still participate?
This is tricky, because the CSA share is all about accepting what we provide, trying new things, and being open to shifting your usual veggies to the ones that are seasonal. I would suggest you shop at our farmstand and markets if you are very picky !
Why would I join your CSA specifically? What makes it unique?
Our CSA program includes many veggies and varieties that you won’t find in other programs (seedless melon, heirloom tomatoes, asparagus and more). We also include several unique Asian veggies. We are known to give more than you pay for, and our members appreciate the variety and bounty. We also have high standards for clean fresh veggies.
If I don’t like the program, can I get a refund?
Unfortunately not. We really encourage you to do your research on the program before joining so you can make sure you are up for the commitment. It is a financial commitment and a commitment to your health. The food you get every week holds you accountable.
