SUMMER SHARE
CUSTOMIZABLE CSA SHARES
We grow more than 60 types of vegetables, plus melons and strawberries! You will receive 10-13 items in each box, and will have the ability to customize your box. Pictured and playing below are 3 different share boxes from different times of the season.
As a summer season member, you will get to share in the full bounty of the fields. From greens and strawberries in the early season, to juicy heirlooms in the late summer, to butternut squash in the fall, we promise to fill your plates with interesting and delicious vegetables.
All of our shares are customizable. Each week we will suggest a share with about 10 – 13 items. Using our mobile friendly software, you will be able to view this share and swap out any items you don’t love for ones you do. Zucchini not your favorite? Swap out for more carrots. Don’t want kale? Customize your share to have head lettuce instead.
We grow over 60 different vegetables, as well as strawberries and melons. The majority of shares are full of staple crops you’ll recognize, like carrots, broccoli, lettuce, onions, tomatoes, and potatoes. But we also grow many other kinds of vegetables that reflect the diversity of what can be grown in Wisconsin. You’ll get to learn and hopefully love some new veggies – like fennel, kohlrabi, and kale to name a few.
Weekly educational tips from our veggie share syllabus will help you learn about the items in your box and give you storage tips and cooking ideas. On our website, we have a recipe search index which provides access to all archived recipes. And our weekly post on the Field Dispatches blog will give you a feel for what life is like on the farm.
We have two different share options for our summer shares.
