The Mary’s Land Farm Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) strives to provide as much of the member’s diet as possible by providing fresh and healthy vegetables, fruits, herbs, greens, eggs, breads, dairy and meat, that are all raised locally and responsibly.
Our CSA is designed with two base packages, and then crucial add-on items. The base items comes from our farm. The add-ons come from our farm and other area farms.
The farm understands that in the CSA model you are putting your weekly diet in our hands and our goal is to pleasantly surprise you with great tasting and truly locally raised items, that are healthy.
CSA Members receive the First Fruits, meaning:
1. CSA Members get the Highest Priority for our Products. We are growing for the CSA first. What isn’t sold in the CSA is sold retail in our store. In other words, if we have a limited quantity offresh lettuce, it’s going to the CSA member first. If we have a limited egg yield, eggs are going to the CSA members first. We expect all of our organic orchard products to be sold through the CSA.
2. CSA Members get the Freshest Products. Because you are subscribing to our service, we know when your CSA must be ready. For example – we can harvest for you on Monday or early Tuesday morning because we know you are coming on Tuesday afternoon.
3. CSA Members have more packaging options. CSA members can opt to recieive their eggs on a recyclable flat or their lettuce with the roots on in a simple plastic bag instead of washed in a clamshell. These are options we cannot offer to in the store.
We will provide you with our farm produced items, along with items furnished by other local farms that are good tasting and good for you. These products fill the food gaps that we cannot. For example, we will now provide you with baked goods, dairy items, fermented products and seafood from other farms and local producers. However, those producers must meet our ethical and environmental standards.
Purchasing Flexibility – Members have a highly functional online CSA management system, administered by Farmigo, which has been improved upon every year since 2009. You can put your subscription on hold when you are out of town, and you are able to swap out items from the standard share and receive a Farmigo credit which may be used to buy other products.
Pickup vs Delivery – Pickup will be on Wednesdays or Saturdays at Mary’s Land Farm. The farm will increase pickup locations at any site where 10 or more shares can be delivered. if your place of business, your church, or your club will host Mary’s Land Farm as a CSA pickup location for more than 10 shares, please contact [email protected]
Delivery will be on Wednesday. There is a delivery fee of $10 per delivery.
