WHAT IS THE WINTER CSA SHARE?

Winter shares consist of a pre-boxed, once-a-month pickup from December through May of approx 15-20 lbs of our own organic vegetables, and 1-3 dozen of our pastured organic eggs. You will pick one of the following share types (they are the same price): 

“Garden of Eve” share includes produce and eggs grown at Garden of Eve. A vegan option which replaces eggs with locally grown (non-organic) apples is also available. The Garden of Eve Winter Share is $280 ($46.67/month for 6 months), plus a $10  packaging fee (to cover bags and boxes for the share) a total of $290.

• FALL (Dec-Jan) may include our own fresh organic field-grown greens such as kale, collards, Swiss chard, and Brussels sprouts, as well as some stored items such as beets, carrots, potatoes, sweet potatoes, rutabagas, cabbage, celeriac, daikon, onions, garlic, and winter squash.

• WINTER (Feb-March) may include mainly stored items such as beets, carrots, potatoes, sweet potatoes, rutabagas, celeriac, and garlic, and butternut winter squash.

• SPRING (April-May) may include our own fresh greenhouse and field grown delicacies such as mesclun lettuce and cooking greens, such as baby kale, mizuna, mustards, bok choi, Swiss chard, etc.

 “Shopping Basket” share will include Garden of Eve vegetables and eggs in slightly smaller quantities than the Garden of Eve share, plus 2-3 “locavore” products each month including Garden of Eve organic bread-and-butter cucumber pickles, beet pickles, corn relish, jarred tomatoes; organic flours; organic dried beans; OG buckwheat cereal and buckwheat; Long Island raw honey, etc.  The Shopping Basket Winter Share is $280 ($46.67/month for 6 months), plus a $10  packaging fee (to cover bags and boxes for the share) a total of $290.  

NEW! Winter MEAT share will include grassfed, hormone-free beef from our family members in Norwich, NY (near Binghamton). It is also likely to include Garden of Eve-raised antibiotic-free chickens and possibly other meats including lamb, pork, or local frozen seafood. The Winter Meat share is $180 ($30/month for 6 months).

EGG Shares:  Available as a stand-alone item without the vegetable winter share. Receive one dozen eggs each month, for each of 6 months, for $30 (i.e. $5/dozen for 6 pickups). You may buy as many additional egg shares as you want (i.e. 3 egg shares, get 3 dozen per month).
