Winter Vegetable Delivery (CSA)
Winter CSA Options
The winter CSA runs December - April with no share the weeks of Christmas and New Years (10 weeks: bi-weekly)
Can I skip a week? We allow one skipped week per year for which we can offer Farm Credit. Members may skip more if they wish, we just can’t provide Farm Credit for more than one week.
Delivery & Pickup Across DC & Maryland
Delivery: We charge a $10 fee for home delivery, which can be bundled into your upfront or installment payments.

Our vegetable delivery is structured as a CSA. This stands for Community Supported Agriculture, which means that community members commit to purchasing shares of a farmer’s harvest each season. Every week you will get a bag filled with freshly harvested vegetables, which you can customize. As the seasons and harvests change, so will the types of vegetables you receive. Our produce tastes extra good because it’s been grown in healthy soil with sustainable farming practices and hasn't been sitting in a fridge for months on end. It's a part of our mission to develop food diversity and teach you and our communities how to eat seasonally, so we will be right there to help you every step of the way!

It’s easy! We’ll send you a reminder each week:
Friday: We’ll email you that it’s time to customize your share, and provide you a link to do so.
Sunday: If you’d like to customize your share, you can do so until midnight on Sunday. If not, we’ll put together a great share for you!
Wednesday + Thursday: Your share will be ready for pickup or delivery. We’ll send a reminder email that includes recipes and tips for that week’s veggies.

We offer the same share at two price points in an effort to make fresh produce more accessible during the winter months. Our standard option is available at 2023 market prices, and our “Pay It Forward” option is only $5 more per week. Participation in the “Pay It Forward” rate allows us to continue to offer winter shares at the 2023 market price for folks who would be excluded from participating if we increased prices each year as needed to cover our increasing costs.
All shares have flexible payment options, so you can pay up front or in installments. If you require alternate payment arrangements, please contact Farmer Mike and he'll be happy to work with you!
We understand the commitment of a CSA can be a hurdle for folks financially. If our payment options preclude you from joining our farm, we would love to work with you. If this is a concern for you, please contact us.
Your CSA payment supports fair labor: Your CSA share makes it possible for us to follow fair labor practices and regenerative and sustainable farming practices.
