Our program for the 2023 season will run for 12 consecutive weeks beginning the week of July 4. Weekly boxes will include a wide variety of produce including greens, beets, beans, carrots, garlic, tomatoes, potatoes, squash, and much more. The quantity and size of each weekly box will vary depending on what is in season but will average between $35-40/week over the season. When harvests are plentiful our Farm Share members get to reap the benefits and share the bounty.
Each week an email will be sent to members showcasing what you will receive in your box. This email will also include recipes to help you use the produce you are receiving. Throughout the season we will also be offering add ons of other goods, such as locally raised ground beef, flowers bouquets, and other locally produced goods, links to order will be provided in your email.
Payment is due in full upon registration to the program, payment plans can be set up by contacting Suzanne directly. Payment plans must be completed before the first pick up (week of July 4).

The amount and value of each vegetable pick up will vary based on the point in the season and the weather. We work hard to guarantee the value of your box but in the event of extreme weather special considerations may be required. In the event of a bountiful harvest Farm Share members will get to share in the bounty.

We do not offer substitutions. If you are unable to use something in your share we encourage you to share or trade with a neighbour or friend.
