How much produce will I receive in a week?
Are you curious about what you will receive in your weekly share? The Chatfield CSA sets up their distribution in a "market style" layout instead of a pre-determined box. We have scales and pre-weighed options for all of our produce. This means you can choose whatever crop you know you will use and leave what you don't want. Our extra produce gets donated at the end of the night to many non-profit organizations in our community.
Take a look at the monthly examples of what is included in a weekly share. As with all of our produce this is subject to change depending on the season and its bounty.
The herbs that we grow include: Basil, Chives, Cilantro, Dill, Mint, Lemon Balm, Oregano, Parsley, Rosemary, Sage, Sweet Marjoram, Tarragon, and Thyme. The shares will receive 2-3 herbs on a weekly basis.
