CSA

Our Spring Season CSA is now underway

Summer Season starts in July!

Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) is a locally-based food distribution system that creates a direct link between farmers and consumers.  Pre-purchase a “share” of the farm’s harvest and receive in exchange a weekly basket of fresh picked produce as it becomes available throughout the growing season. Basket contents vary from week to week, season to season. It includes the very best of what we can grow at any given time of the year. CSA is unique because members actually share in part of the farmers’ risk.

Join Full Circle Farm’s CSA

The Full Circle Farm CSA runs year-round, broken into 13-week quarters. Memberships are purchased quarterly with the quarters beginning in the first week of January, April, July and October. Current members are given priority for membership renewal for the next quarter.

Any non-renewing memberships will be offered to people on our wait list. Add your name, share size, and pick-up date to our Waitlist Sign-Up! Open shares will be offered via email starting June 19th. New members will be added on a first-come-first-serve basis, so respond promptly for the best chance being added to the Summer Season CSA!

Our shares come in two sizes, full and half. Full shares are sized for a typical family of 4, and a half share, approximately 65% of a full share, is sized for a family of 2. Shares are currently $300 and $200 for the full and half shares respectively. Membership payment is due in full prior to the first pickup.

How does it work?

Once you have purchased your membership, you will receive Full Circle’s farm manager newsletter at the start of each week with the list of produce in the CSA share that week. The newsletter provides you with notes about the produce varieties, recipe suggestions and produce storage tips. Then on your chosen CSA pickup day, bring your market bags to the farm, sign in and select your produce and products from the farm stand baskets. The CSA team will set up signs indicating how much to take of each product. You can choose to pick up your share on one of two evenings, Tuesdays or Thursdays, between 4 pm and 8 pm.

Paying for your CSA Membership

Members can pay for CSA membership in three ways:

1. Online with a credit card using the online payment link.

2. By mailing or delivering a check made out to Full Circle Farm.

3. In person with cash.
