General Information
Our Spring CSA Program will have many likenesses to our past & present Fall CSA program.
It will be unmanned for the most part and we will work with the "Honor System".
It is a "One-Size" share only and we will use the "Box-Share" method rather than the "Market - Share" method. This means, the farmer will pack a box for you with each week's offerings.
We will provide 2 boxes and rotate them each week, so we ask that you bring your box back each week & we promise to fill it back up!
We will try & accomodate any food allergies, please mention any on the Spring CSA order form.

By purchasing a Spring Share with Country Roots Farm, I am contributing to the farmer's ability to continue to offer locally grown foods. I am making a financial commitment for the Spring season. Nature is unpredictable and even though I am guaranteed fresh produce for the Spring season, due to the inherent risks of farming, there are no guarantees on the exact amount of produce I will receive.

Update (1-31-12). There are 2 families who have made a financial commitment for the Spring share and to share in the drive. Any others interested?
