Sign up for Take Root Farm's Organic Produce Co-op. 2011 - 2012 season starts October 26th and continues thru May 30th (32 weeks). Now that summer is over, make sure your family gets fresh organic vegetables and fruits all year round and save money too!!

Since the produce comes directly from the supplier, it is much fresher than what sits on retail store shelves.

Co-op members have first chance to reserve their summer share. 2012 summer season runs June 6th - October 19th. Summer shares have sold out every year since our beginning in 2004.

How it works

  • Each week members receive a box of both vegetables and fruit
  • All produce is certified organic
  • Members pay wholesale prices plus a small mark up to cover labor for packing, and managing the system itself. All proceeds go right into funding the summer CSA farm operation
  • Members save over retail organic prices, while supporting their local organic farm
  • Members pick up their boxes at the farm each week.
  • Members can buy extra of certain items or exchange items they don't want in their box for something different. Details are posted at the farm.
  • As available add seasonal u-pick greens and herbs for free!

Two box sizes to choose from

A regular box will feed an average family of 2 to 4 people. Many larger families will also find it to be plenty for them. A small box will feed an average family of 1 to 2 people. Each family varies in the amount of produce they consume.

Our co-op boxes provide a wide variety of produce. Here are some of the things we had in previous years. Lettuce, celery, onions, cauliflower, broccoli, radishes, leeks, different types of potatoes, peppers, carrots, peas, beans, several types of winter squash, yams, beets, cilantro, cucumbers, spinach, gr. onions, cabbage, different kinds of tomatoes, salad mixes, Asian pears, pears, apples, bananas, oranges, kiwi, grapefruit, avocados, tangerines, lemons, satsumas, artichokes, asparagus, zucchini, sunburst squash, eggplant, persimmons, bok choy, chard, kale, mango, strawberries, melons, grapes, etc.

Each week boxes will contain between 5 and 7 varieties of vegetables and 3 to 5 varieties of fruits.

This is a great way for people to afford to eat organic. Members eat higher quality produce and pay much less than at the grocery store, all while supporting their local farm.

Pick up days and times

Season is October 26th through May 30th. Pick up time is every Wednesday 2:00 pm until 7:00 pm. Open Thursday 9:00 am until 7:00 pm for missed pick ups. Members can opt out for a week and receive a credit if they give at least three days notice.
