Heres’ What’s On the Vine…
The Seasonal CSA Program Enrollment Opens the First Week of April & Concludes the Last Week of May
The CSA embodies the concept of connecting the orchard, crops, and farm team directly to you, the consumer. You are sharing in the rewards of our labor as well as a part of the risks associated with farming. When joining this CSA you are purchasing a share or portion of the crops that the orchard produces. You will receive your share throughout the growing season delivered to your choice of four pick up sites. You will receive a wide variety of freshly picked fruit and vegetables throughout the course of our growing season.
Cultural Practices
Our cultural practice is to provide either no or minimal/low spray during the planting and growing environment and implement IPMT practices for both the fruit and vegetable crop. A farm safety program is now implemented for all visitors to the orchard to enhance the safety of all concerned.
CSA Program Season
The CSA program starts the last weekend in June or the 1st weekend of July. The full share starts the last week in June and continues for 15 more weeks for a total of 16 weeks. The half share starts either the last weekend of June or the 1st weekend of July and continues every other weekend for 7 weeks for a total of 8 weeks. Pickup timeframes are Friday at the orchard from 2:00pm – 6:00pm or Saturday from 9:00am – 5:00pm. For the remaining locations, the pickup is during market operations.
