How Our CSA Works

We are a Community-Supported Agriculture (CSA) farm. We offer weekly vegetable boxes and biweekly or weekly flower bouquets.

Here’s how it works:

🌻 Sign up for a share of the farm. 🌻 Yay!

We start growing all the plants for the season. Farming is a year-round endeavor! Winter is our planning season – we do all our paperwork, accounting, inventory, ordering, projects – everything to get ready to grow. We start growing flowers and veggie seedlings in February and continue seeding new crops each week through June.

Deliveries begin in July. 🌞

– We deliver to your home on Saturdays.

– Your veggie share will come in a sturdy green box with the Yellow Dog logo on it. We will leave it on your porch.

– Your flower bouquet will come in a glass mason jar. We will ring your doorbell and otherwise leave it on your front porch, in a shady spot. Feel free to give us directions!

– We will pick up last week’s box and/or mason jar each week. We clean and re-use them.

Please don’t toss out boxes! Leave them on your porch or in your building’s lobby for pick-up each week.

– Your delivery time will depend on where you are on our route.

– We send out a weekly newsletter with a description of what’s in the box, plus recipes, photos of the farm and any other tips we have for enjoying the bounty! Please give us the email address that you check regularly.

Deliveries end in October. 🍂

That’s it!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

When do my deliveries start? The first Saturday in July!

When will my box arrive? Saturdays, between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m.

We add new members each year (and sometimes, they join mid-season), so our routes vary from year to year. We start at 8 a.m. and go until we’ve made our last delivery. Your delivery depends on where you live along our route. Deliveries can vary slightly week to week, as we accommodate vacation changes. We are two people with one delivery van! So until we teach the dogs to drive, it’s just us.

What’s in my box? Check your email! We send a weekly newsletter with photos and descriptions. If you’re stumped by something, just ask. We are produce nerds and are happy to swap ideas and recipes.
