Please Note
We promise to do our best to provide you with a bountiful share each week. However, quantities may vary from week-to-week due to extreme weather or other production factors despite our best efforts. By joining our CSA, you agree to share this risk with us. If a large portion of crops fail so that we are unable to deliver a full share in any given week, the CSA season may be extended for up to 2 make-up weeks. You will be notified in advance via email of any changes to the pickup schedule.
