CSA Summer 2012
Evermore Farm Summer 2012 CSA
Shares in the Evermore Farm 2012 Summer CSA are now available. Below are the details of the produce, egg, and meat shares that we are offering from our farm.
The variety of produce and bounty depend on the season. At the beginning of the year, quantities tend to be smaller, with a focus on salad and greens. Toward the middle of the season, the variety and quantity is at its greatest. By early September, the range of vegetables has decreased dramatically. For many members, it is a completely new experience to follow the growing season so closely. We write regular newsletters with food preparation tips, recipes, crop news, and other items of interest. Occasionally, we will source product from other local farms, such as jams or honey, to provide variety to your share.
Produce Share
We are starting something new this year and I don’t mean the new vegetables we’ll plant J

Large Produce Share- You will receive $30 worth of produce weekly for 15 weeks (Memorial Day Weekend through Labor Day Weekend) totaling $450.00 per share.
