CSA:   Blenheim Organic Gardens   (May-October)

(4 reviews)

Blenheim Organic Gardens CSA share is delivered to one location, where members come & pick it up, or they may pick up at the farm. The vegetables, herbs &/or fruit are USDA Certified Organic and grown entirely on Blenheim Farm. They are usually washed, cleaned &/or bunched or bagged. We pack the share in one waxed box each week & every family rotates 2 boxes, so that on the next week's delivery the previous, now empty, box is returned to the pick-up location to be taken back to the farm & refilled for the following week. If a share seems too large, we encourage members to find someone to split the share with. The selection of produce is what is in season & is decided by the farmer. There are 6-9 items in the box each week. Earlier in the season, when there is less to choose from, the share will likely contain 6 items, but in the summer there could even be 10 items in a weekly share! The selection of produce ranges from Arugula to zucchini.(Check out our list of vegetables, fruit & herbs we grow, also in our Local Harvest listing, where you can also find recipes for each vegetable, fruit or herb.) Each week the box will have a list of that week's produce, & very often recipes & ideas how to prepare the vegetables or herbs is included. CSA members are invited to the farm at least 2 times a year. In August we host a Tomato Tasting Day, which includes a picnic and farm tour. And in October we strive to have a Pumpkin Picking Day, which also includes a picnic and farm tour, and sometimes Steamed Crabs! In 2009 we hope to have a few work days where members may come and help with a farming project, and in return for their service get fed a delicious farm grown meal and an offer to take home some vegetables or fruit!
