With a free-choice CSA, the food you eat will reflect what is in season at that moment. Every week you get to pick what?s in your share from the harvest week to week, selecting from a variety of veggies. Depending on the size of the share you commit to for the season, you will choose 7 or 9 units of those items each week. A unit may be four pounds of tomatoes, a big bunch of kale, a bag of salad mix, a pumpkin, etc.
We like the free choice model because the biggest concern we?ve heard over the years from CSA members is that there?s always certain items that go uneaten ? after all, everyone?s taste is different. When you get to make your own decision about what you take home, you?re going to select what you know you?ll eat, and you get to enjoy healthy, delicious food that?s fresher than anything you can find in the grocery store.
