CSA: River Rise Farm

The share provides a wide variety of seasonal vegetables. For the summer season that includes early crops such as lettuce and snap peas and summer favorites such as tomatoes, carrots, squash, cucumbers, beans, peppers and onions. New this year will be our own organic strawberries. For the fall, the share includes the last of the summer bounty; classic root vegetables such as carrots, turnips, beets, potatoes and sweet potatoes; winter squash and pumpkins; and cool weather greens such as kale and Brussels sprouts. We also offer you an opportunity to taste vegetables, fruit, and herbs that may be new to you or are difficult to find in local markets, like sweet ground cherries. For members picking up at the farm, we will have a "swap box" where you can swap out something you're not wild about for something you may like better.

The size of the weekly share follows the sun, increasing in size as the summer months go by and varying with the weather. We have found that people's eating habits vary drastically. Our shares can provide the majority of vegetables for some small families, two adults who eat vegetables with dinner every night, or one hungry vegetarian with a pet bunny. If you are away frequently, consider splitting the share
