Each week, CSA members will be able to choose their shares from what is coming out of the fields at that time. Our Alma, Mt. Pleasant, and Midland locations choose their shares "market style", where they choose their produce set up on tables, and pick the number of items according to their share size. At our Lansing, Okemos, St. Johns, and Midland hospital locations, members have a choice between three prepacked shares that include different items. They let us know each week which of the three prepacked bags they'd like, and we bring the bags to them at the drop-off location.
