Reviews for: Dry Dock Farm

We have been extremely pleased with our relationship with Dry Dock Farms. The quality and quantity of food far surpassed our expectations. I can't imagine eating store bought eggs again. Mark and Michelle Wagstaff have made this a great experience from their timely deliveries to the informative weekly emails. They have also become a great source for other locally produced products - and they deliver them! I would highly recommend this CSA and look forward to many years of healthy food choices.

We have been receiving deliveries since early June 2010 and we have been more then happy. I have to admit that I wasn't sure about doing a CSA - would I eat the food? would my kids eat the food? would any of the food go to waste. All my worries soon came to an end. It has been a great experience to share with our kids. They love to see what is in our cooler and hear about the farm in the newsletter. We bought a half share and easily consume everything in our cooler - we are a family of 4. We are now considering a full share for next year. The veges and eggs are perfect and the fruit is amazing. My kids absolutely loved the blackberries we received - the best I have ever eaten. All our interactions with Michelle and Mark have been great. I look foward to the rest of our share and years to come!

I love all of the food so far! I have been cooking up a storm for me and my family and we all love how everything taste so fresh and so tasty. My blueberries were gone within 24 hours---I could not stopping popping them into my mouth! And the corn was so sweet and delicious!

I was a member of this CSA in 2009 and could not have been happier. The weekly veggies and herbs were a delight to cook with. Ones that I had not previously experienced were fun to learn more about, facilitated in part by the weekly newsletter. The fruits were always perfectly sweet and a cheery inclusion in the cooler. And the fresh eggs... wow! I felt spoiled by the "magic chest" of goodies appearing at my front door each week. Michelle and Mark are wonderful people and maintained good communication throughout the year. I was sad to see the growing season come to a close in October. Unfortunately I have moved to PA now, and must try to find a new CSA which can compare to the fabulous Dry Dock Farm.

We enjoyed our CSA shares so much. The fruits and veggies were very fresh and I especially liked the fact that they were delivered to our house weekly. I liked the extras, like honey and apple butter that were included, as well. The weekly newsletter had great information and recipes. I made things that I never thought I would, such as pickled beets and liked them. The weekly information on the status of the farm was very educational and made farming more real for my kids that live here in the suburbs. We learned all the ups and downs of the farming season. The Wagstaffs really went the extra mile to provide a great service.

Our family has been so pleased with the whole experience of participating in the CSA with Dry Dock Farm. Not only did we get familiar seasonal fruits and vegetables delivered every week, we also got to try varieties that were new to us. Mark and Michelle also included honey, fresh herbs, eggs, and gave us the chance to order grocery items such as hand made noodles and home grown meats from their contacts. I liked the portions they sent each week, I could make good use of each item with little or no waste, I froze some surplus things such as peppers, canned some jalapenos, and shared some things with friends, like those wonderful sweet onions. We also have potatoes, sweet potatoes and squash set aside as they will keep well into the winter months. We fully intend to continue our participation in this service. It makes sense to keep our grocery dollars directly connected to the source of our groceries.

We've been getting a share of veggies & eggs all summer and they have been great!
