CSA's still available for 2009 growing season!

Today I'd like to talk about our CSA program. CSA stands for Community Supported Agriculture. What it is all about is that customers buy shares into our operation in return for produce and products throughout the growing season. The money is non-refundable but guarantees the customer first opportunity at the products we offer without having to stand in line at the market, or showing up to farmers market late and the possibility of something being sold out. Our program I believe is unique from most other CSA's because we send a grocery list once a week via email to our customers and they return it back telling us what they would like. Then we package their orders seperately and have them prepared for pickup at market. This way the customer can pick and choose from our wide variety of produce and spend any amount they like per week. This way you can save the money put into the share for possibly larger amounts of sweet corn or tomatoes or anything else you may want in bulk later in the season. Most CSA's that I know of don't offer that kind of experience. They just bag up the same products for every customer and you spend the same equal amount every week whether you like it or not! We are also doing something different this year in spite of the economy. We know money is tight for everyone so instead of our $200.00 share for $200.00 worth of products, we are offering $100.00 shares. And for evry $100.00 spent you will get $10.00 free. This is to say thank you for choosing us at the local farmers market. If you are interested either contact us here or visit with us at the River City farmers market in Davenport, IA or the Tipton City Farmers Market in Tipton, IA.
