Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) WHAT IS A CSA? Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) is a direct connection to your farmer. In support of clean locally produced food we develop a relationship with our community and our land. We create a unique opportunity for families to receive a weekly share of seasonal produce harvested fresh from our farm. We share a commitment with our members and hope for a bountiful harvest worth celebrating. Our CSA is for those committed members who pre-pay for a weekly supply of produce. This helps cover our cost for seed, organic fertilizers, equipment, labor, etc. We plan and work the garden to provide the members with an equal share of seasonal produce. The share of produce is available for pick-up every week during the growing season. Our members generally love fresh vegetables, and love trying new things. A lot of what we grow is unique, and not available from the grocery store. WHERE DO WE DELIVER? Every week (during the season) we deliver fresh vegetables and herbs to our drop sites...
North Houston - Tuesdays, 3:30 - 6pm We also have driving groups from the Woodlands, Katy and College Station. WHAT WILL MEMBERS RECEIVE? You will receive at least 6 to 8 different types of vegetables and herbs each week during the growing seasons. Our farm grows over 100 varieties with a focus on unique heirloom vegetables. Every family is different, but it will supplement your grocery store purchases, bringing up to the gourmet level, and provides more than enough food for a couple or an average family of four (but most of our members are not average families). Our purpose is to provide the freshest, chemical-free produce harvested within 12 hours of delivery. View the Harvest Chart to have a better idea of what is seasonally available. WHAT IF I’M OUT OF TOWN ONE WEEK?Please let us know so that we can provide more food for our other members, or we recommend that you find someone who is able to take your share. The garden still grows and we still need to harvest. If you so choose, any shares not picked-up will be donated in your name. THE WAITING LIST...Each season is planned in advanced and there is limited space available. Membership is available first-come, first-served until we are full. If farm membership is full at the time you send your Application & Membership Fee, we can return your check or hold it for the first available space. The waiting list may be for up to 6-12 months depending upon the season. No checks will be accepted without the completed application form, download here. WHAT IS THE COST? Members commit for a year and pay $960 for a 32 week share. Payments are made beginning Jan. 1st, details available on our CSA Membership Form. Some months there may be a few weeks with no delivery (Aug-Sept). Our goal is to deliver 32 weeks per year, and your commitment makes this work possible. If you join after January or in the fall, your fee will be different according to the time of year. View the Harvest Chart to better understand seasonal availability.
