In 2011 Eldredge Farms Community Supported Agriculture Program is a way for the food buying public to create a relationship with Eldredge Farms where buyers receive a weekly basket of produce, flowers, fruits, eggs, and other farm products. By making a financial commitment to the farm you become a "member" (or "shareholder). These limited shares will be sold on a first come, first served basis.
Again in 2011 the season will be 20 weeks. The first share distribution date is scheduled for Monday June 14th and the last will take place the week of October 25th. The spring weather does play a factor on the start date.
Because shares contain the freshest produce available and because there is no way to precisely predict growing conditions during a season, we won¢¯¿½?¢¢¯¿½?…¾¢t know the actual content of a share until it¢¯¿½?¢¢¯¿½?…¾¢s time for the weekly harvest. That being said, the average weekly share will be a variety of 7-10 items, 1/2 bushel in size, weighing between 6-12 lbs (avg. 10 lbs). Based on a typical growing season, you should expect to find these items in your share: May: salad mix, broccoli, radishes, cabbage, spinach, Chinese greens June: beets, broccoli, carrots, cucumbers, flowers, lettuce, peas, spinach July: basil, beets, broccoli, corn, carrots, tomatoes, cauliflower, greens, melons, onions, garlic, eggplant, bell peppers, hot peppers, yellow squash and zucchini August: basil, beans, beets, broccoli, carrots, corn, melons, onions, garlic, bell peppers, hot peppers, thyme, rosemary, yellow squash and zucchini September: salad mix, basil, beets, broccoli, corn, carrots, melons, onions, potatoes, snow and snap peas, tomatoes, yellow squash and zucchini October: salad mix, beets, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, carrots, onions, potatoes, spinach, yellow squash and zucchini.
