As one would expect, the harvest is small in the beginning of the growing season and expands as time goes on. I appreciated the different varieties of vegetables that have been included - some that I have never tried before.
It worked best to clean the produce as soon as we picked it up and to then refrigerate immediately. Carrots (and similar vegetables) do better if you cut their leafy tops off prior to storing. Some vegetables came with little worms inside, but I wasn't disturbed by them.
There were, however, two things that have bothered me about this CSA. One is that there is such a large variety of produce in each box that there is only a very small amount of each item. And although we opted for the small box, I would often be surprised by the fact that we'd get 2-3 carrots per week (for example). So, depending upon your own needs, that might be great for you. It wasn't great for my own family because there were several things we would have liked much more of and other vegetables we would have liked to have less of. A good solution for us, then, would be to use their "choice" option. (It costs more for this option, however, and I am aware of other CSAs that allow choice as a fundamental part of the process without having to charge additional funds.)
The second thing that surprised me about this CSA is fruit...there wasn't much of it. I do not think this particular farm grows much fruit at all and will occasionally purchase it from other farmers to include in the box. Since it costs them extra money to do so, I don't think they opt to do it very often. My children love fruit and I was expecting there to be more of a balance between fruit and vegetable offerings.
If you want to familiarize yourself with the variety that this particular CSA offers, go to the Richland Farmer's Market and visit their stand. They are usually near the roundabout and have the vegetable stand with all of the baskets around it.
So to sum it up, I did like this CSA. (LocalHarvest's 3 stars = "liked it")...however...
1.) I think the emphasis on variety can interfere with having sufficient amounts of individual vegetable items
and
2.) There is not enough fruit for my family.
