Except for people who live near us and can pick
up on the farm, the CSA is now full. Please check back next year to see if we have openings.
Joining a community supported agriculture (CSA)
program is a way to support local farmers and recieve fresh seasonal produce. Members of our CSA program recieve
vegetables from our organic farm and from other farms very close to Washington.
The CSA runs from late May through late
October. Members will receive at least 20 weeks of seasonal vegetables and herbs.
Weekly pickups are on Monday evenings
at the farm and at Christ Church at 6th and G SE. Pickup times at both sites is from 5pm to 7pm.
2008 Share Prices:
Shares Delivered to Capitol Hill: $700
Shares picked-up on the farm: $600
14 week flower share: $150
Payment in full is preferred but please
let us know if you would like to pay in installments. We encourage members to work on the farm or at pickup
to reduce the cost of their shares.
What Will Subscribers Receive? On average, the weekly shares will include around
$30 worth of vegetables. The spring shares include strawberries, lettuce, peas, greens, radishes, onions, kale and other early
crops. Beginning in July, the shares will consist of summer produce such as squash, tomatoes, beans, peppers, corn and
melons. Fall shares are similar to those in the spring but are usually larger. The size of the shares varies from week
to week, being abundant some weeks and smaller others. Click here for full CSA crop list.
Supporting Other Local Farms: In addition to the organic food grown on our
farm, the weekly shares include vegetables from other local family farms.
We purchase produce from other farms in order
to support farms in our area and to provide CSA members with additional variety and value.
Most of the produce from other local farms is not organic, though as much as possible we try to buy from farmers
that we know use limited chemicals. Each week we let you know exactly what is from our farm, what's from other farms, what's
organic and what's not.
