The Family Share is exactly twice the size of our Individual Share and is appropriate for 3-4 people who enjoy organic vegetables like salad mixes, radishes, arugula, spinach, chard, kale, kohlrabi, beets, broccoli, onions, carrots, potatoes, tomatoes, squash, cucumbers, peppers and garlic.
The share is 4-7 varieties of freshly harvested vegetables given to you straight out of coolers with an averaged weekly retail value of $30.
Everything is organic. No genetically-modified seed.
The base price is $660 for 20 weeks from June through October. A convenience fee of $15 has been added here.
Our story:
In 2007, Julia and Todd McDonald moved from their small Chicago apartment to a similarly narrow single-wide trailer on a 20-acre plot of land in the middle of corn country. They want to help meet the need for new farmers and local vegetables.

LINCOLN SQUARE - Tuesday mornings 7:00 - noon at the Farmers Market, W. Leland/N. Lincoln intersection.
NORTH CENTER - Tuesday afternoon/evenings 3:00 - 7:00 at Blue Sky Bakery, 3720 N. Lincoln.
