Details:
> Our CSA distribution days are Saturday and Monday:
- Saturday Marquette Farmers Market pick-up from 9-1
- Monday farm pick-up from 4-7 (flexible)
- reach out for a discussion on alternate pickups
> Our $20 CSA share is perfect for one veggie oriented person or two individuals, and our $30 share is perfect for two veggie oriented individuals or a small family
> You can absolutely mix and match CSA months (a $30/week June and $20/week August for example)
> You will be asked if you want to be added to our CSA egg list. Chickens can be inconsistent, and eggs may not be available every week, but will be offered as often as possible. Our chickens are free range, spoiled, and their eggs are delicious! There is no cost, eggs will just be included as an item when available. You are always allowed to message and order eggs, even if you are not on the CSA egg list.
> You will be asked if there are any allergies to be aware of or other preferences (ie. tomato allergy, no celery, no beets, no carrot greens, etc.)
> Sourdough loaves are baked fresh by hand on Friday for Saturday pickups, and baked fresh on Monday for Monday pickups.
> We do not use plastic bags or disposable plastic of any kind. Our bags are compostable and you can return any packaging included in your CSA for us to compost or reuse (egg cartons, clamshells for sprouts, rubber bands, etc.)
> Our weekly shares come in a fabric Pileated Farms insulated tote that ensures your share stays fresh. You return your previous week’s bag at pick-up or leave out at delivery, and at the end of your share you receive one Pileated Farms insulated tote as a CSA thank you.
> On Fridays before CSA day, members will receive an email with the contents of their box for the week. These emails will also include recipe ideas for this week’s vegetables, any interesting information about the specific varieties members will be receiving, and information on how to best keep your vegetables fresh until use. You will be contacted if an item changes or becomes unavailable - sometimes a crop just isn’t ready.
> If a share is not picked up on the assigned day without prior arrangement, there is a two day holding period before your CSA contents are no longer fresh and you forfeit that week’s CSA. For example if you do not pickup on Saturday, you have until Monday to pickup your share. If you need to miss a week, no problem! Just let us know before and we can make a plan. Forfeited CSAs are not refundable.

While advocating for community members to sign up for any local CSA is our goal, we would love for you to join our CSA which we think is special in a few ways. Our CSA is kept small to ensure that members are getting a personalized CSA experience. That also ensures we are able to offer special items to members that we don’t offer, or can’t offer due to harvest size, to the public like strawberries and other fruits, as well as harvests like broccoli and specialty squash that may not yield enough for market. Our CSA members are also contacted first about available items, bulk items, and they also get the first chance to sign up for the following season’s CSA. Hosting a CSA is without a doubt one of my favorite parts of farming, and I hope you will join us this season to see why!
CSA members are one of the driving forces behind our small farm. We are endlessly thankful for past, present, and future members, and the support they have offered,
continue to offer, and what future support will blossom into.
Cheers to growing upward!
