Staehly Farms CSA Shares
A Community Supported Agriculture share bundles all of the best that we have to offer from our farm while making it as easy and enjoyable for you as possible to eat wholesome, locally-grown fruits and veggies.
The Staehly Farms CSA has been designed with flexibility and with busy individuals in mind: There are no set pick-up days, no requirements or limits on quantities of food, and additional seasonal perks as well. Stop in during normal business hours, select the foods you want, and show the CSA Membership card to the cashier. Simple, easy, and all farm products are elligible to be included in your weekly selection.
*** NEW FOR 2017 *** Add fresh beef, pork, or chicken to your share. More details coming soon. This can be added on to an existing share.
When Does My Share Start?
For the 2017 Season we will offer our CSA starting the week of June 4, 2017 for a duration of 20 weeks through October. These are the weeks that we have the best variety of our own products.
What Are The Costs Of My Share?
A Full CSA Share is $600.00 ($30 x 20 weeks). A Half Share is $400.00 ($20 x 20 weeks). We are a diverse farm and your CSA share includes both fruits and vegetables: With special CSA member pricing, when you redeem your value each week it goes further than a non-member's would - For instance CSA Member pricing for a head of lettuce may be $1.50 per head versus $2.00 for a non-member. So a $20 share bought now is redeemed for $25 (or more) worth of produce during the season. A FULL SHARE is suitable for most everyone, including a couple, unless you eat out or are not at home for more than half of the week. A HALF SHARE is suitable for light eaters and single individuals.
