Farm Share Program

We are offering a limited number of slots to those who would like to receive a weekly bag of fresh, organic, produce. It will operate similarly to a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) – but a little different:

The farm share program runs about 32 weeks (mid-April – mid-November) during the growing season. Members pay per month or in a lump sum ahead time to receive a small or large bag of seasonal veggies, herbs and fruit all grown here at Radix Center.

Pricing

$15 per week for a Small share. This is ideal for a household with 1-2 people and you get a half dozen eggs each week (as long as the chickens are laying, they slow down at different times of the year).

$25 per week for a Large share. This is ideal for a household of 2-4 people or for those who love fresh veggies and use a lot of them. This share includes a dozen eggs each week (as long as the chickens are laying, they slow down at different times of the year).

Recipes

At the beginning of each week we will email a recipe to go along with one or more of the items in the bag. This will hopefully help you get excited about using your veggies and some of the more unique ingredients we will have like broccoli rabe, fennel, celeriac, various herbs and spices.

Delivery

We use solar powered motorized bikes to collect compost from customers around the city. If you are already a compost customer we will be able to deliver your farmshare for free while doing the compost route. If you are not a compost customer you can pay an additional $5 for delivery or come to Radix to pick-up your farm share. The delivery days will be Tuesdays, Wednesdays and potentially Thursdays. We will let you know your delivery day before the farm share season starts (April/May). 

We can only deliver within a two mile radius of Radix Center or along the compost route. 

If you are interested in becoming a compost customer please email compost@radixcenter.org and read more about the program on our community compost initiative page.  

Pick-Up

On farm pick-ups will be Wednesdays 3-7pm. If you choose to pick-up your share we can send you more details on pick-ups when you sign up!

Billing

If you sign up for the farm share program you will be billed monthly through QuickBooks via email. You can pay online through QuickBooks or via check, PayPal or Venmo. If you can not pick-up/receive your share because you are out of town we can donate your share to the local free food fridge for that week. If for some reason we can not fulfil the share for that week you will not be billed. You will also have the opportunity to pay ahead of time for the season.
