Red Wagon Farm

By: shelli walker (Oct 22, 2009)
This was our first year with Red Wagon and with trying a CSA program. We will definitely sign up again. It was like getting a fantastic present every week! The quality and diversity of the weekly offerings were great. It was nice to have an option to trade some items, and it was great to get the newsletter for ideas on vegetables I'd never prepared before. I really enjoy cooking, and the quality of these flavorful ingredients made my job easy. Even though I always use a lot of veggies, the weekly influx definitely lead me to try more new things and eat more vegetables per meal than ever before. All my life I claimed to dislike beets. Red Wagon changed my mind about this! I also had some friends with shares from other farms so we compared notes. Every time I heard what they got, I consistently got the better deal in both the amount and diversity of what we received every week. This includes not too few types of things or too much of one thing to eat! Nearly nothing went to waste in our household because the share was well planned and portioned, at least for our appetities. Red Wagon also seemed to range a little longer than many other farms, and often had generous little bonuses for its members. I'll miss it, and can't wait for next season!
