WINTER CSA SHARE PICK UP DATE
SATURDAY, DECEMBER 3RD: 12 - 4pm

|
|
|
IMPORTANT LOGISTICS
Your share was purchased with the pick up dates & times provided and the stipulation that you (or a designated friend, neighbor or family member) will make the pick up.
1. Come to the CSA barn to gather your vegetables. Winter shares work just like summer shares, with one exception: instead of choosing your favorite items, you get to take home
all the items we harvest for you.
2.
Important: bring bags and/or boxes to carry your bounty away! We will not provide bags or boxes at share pickups.
3. It will probably take you 20-30 minutes to pack up your winter share, so be sure to arrive at the farm with enough time to weigh your veggies, talk to your farmers and fellow shareholders and enjoy the beauty of the season. We have plenty of vegetables for all of the shares. If it works with your schedule, you don't have to arrive as soon as we open; your pick-up will be more enjoyable later on (no waiting for scales or veggies)! 4. Winter share root crops are unwashed so they'll keep better, so make sure you bring containers you don't mind getting dirty. Recycled plastic bags are great for weighing washed as well as unwashed vegetables.
5. Bring cash, credit card, or checkbook too - for pre-orders and additional products for sale, including local cheese, bread, fruit and TRILLfoods sweets.
