Want fresh, local greens this winter?
Even when Winter comes, fresh local food is still on the table.
Our 20 week CSA runs from November 25th through April 21st, no pickup on the weeks of Christmas or New Years. Full shares and half shares are available — full shares are adequate for 3-4 people, half shares for 1-2 people. Share costs are sliding scale — sliding scale details are on the product page for full and half shares, respectively.
If you haven't participated in a CSA before, it stands for Community Supported Agriculture. In exchange for paying a farmer up front to help them with the costs of doing the farming thing, you receive a share of the resulting harvest for a predetermined amount of weeks. You can expect some variation over the course of the season, with some months a little thinner and others more abundant.
This is a winter CSA designed to give you what you want most in the winter months: greens! Grown with organic methods in our no-till, unheated high tunnels, over the course of the CSA you can expect baby and adult kale, spinach, arugula, lettuce, broccoli, collards, mâche, cabbage, and herbs like parsley and cilantro. We will send out an email on Monday each week with details about the shares.
There are two pickup options: at the farm or at The Portland Yoga Project's Forest Avenue location. Pickups at the farm (3 Prout Road in Freeport) will be on Tuesdays from 3-5pm and Wednesdays from 4-6pm — come on whichever day works for you each week. Pickups at Portland Yoga Project (449 Forest Avenue) will be on Tuesdays from 5-8pm. If you intend to pick up at PYP, please write "PYP" in the order notes when checking out. Shares won't be saved outside of these times except in exceptional circumstances, so if you can't come pick it up, send a friend or a family member!
