CSA: Birch Point Farm

- See more at: http://www.csafarms.org/birchpointfarm.asp

Your membership in the farm will allow us to supply you and up to 79 other members with a weekly box of beautiful, nutritious seasonal veggies, herbs, and occasional flowers and fruit. A share is intended to feed a family of four, or 2-3 veggie lovers. If you can't use an entire share, consider canning, drying, and freezing the rest for yummy local produce through the winter! Some members find a friend to split a share if it's too much for them to use. Our main pickup is at the farm on Tuesdays from 4-7. We also offer in town pickup at these Traverse City locations for an additional $30 per season:

Investor Shares: If a traditional share won't work for you, create your own share size! Invest up front as much as you like in the farm. Your investment yields 10-20% interest (i.e. if you invest $100, you have $110 in farm credit; if you invest $500, you have $600 in farm credit), and each time you shop from our market stall, your purchases are deducted from your account. Re-invest any time you run through your account, or carry your balance over to the next season. Super flexible, more options, but no guarantees (get to market early to take advantage of this option!) . We post a weekly blog list of items included in shares, and we include an e-newsletter with descriptions of new items, recipe and storage ideas, and farm news, every other week or so.
