Dear Fall CSA Member,
We are so excited to start our fall season and we are very grateful that you are part of it!
Welcome to Ananda Gardens 2024 FALL CSA
Our farm stand will be open Thursdays 3 pm to 7 pm Fridays 10 am to 7 pm The Parking The parking area will be in the field to the left following the signs. Your CSA will be under the tent next to the parking area.
Logistics At our Market Style Farm stand you can choose from all the items we have harvested, except the add-ons (Eventually we will offer Maple Syrup, Honey, seasonal fruit, etc.). The add-ons are products pre-paid by other CSA members and when you take any of these products this affects the farm and other members of our community. Thank you for taking this into consideration, especially if someone is going to pick up the CSA for you, please make sure they know the specifications of your CSA. Every CSA member has pre-paid a specific size of share. What to get with your share Small Share = 6 items. Medium Share = 8 items. Jumbo Share = 12 items. An Item is (unless otherwise noted): A bunch, a pound, a bag, a pint. Among choosing what you like from our products, at our farm stand you have the perk of also choosing the quantities of what you like. For example: you might choose instead of buying a whole pound of tomatoes, which is an item, a ½ pound of tomatoes and ½ of peppers, that will count as an item. Bags and bunches are not to be divided, though. At our farm stand you can also decide that you want more than 1 item of the same thing, for example: 3 pounds of tomatoes, for a canning project, will be 3 items. Every new CSA member receives an insulated bag at their first pick up. You will then bring this bag to pick up your share each week. Please feel free to also use your bag for a picnic, grocery shopping, etc. _____________ Use of installations, public and restricted access areas for CSA Members, and General Public At Ananda Gardens we love to host our CSA members, so we: Highly encouraged you to walk around the gardens and enjoy the miracle of your food growing in this beautiful and peaceful landscape.
