Share Commitments

• $630 payable in two installments due March 15 and August 1--call if the payment dates present a hardship. Various payment plans are available. See sign-up form for details. If you have financial constraints that make paying this amount difficult, please call to ask about low-income scholarships.

• $5 per household membership fee--that means $10 total if you are splitting the share--to help cover the costs of newsletters and mailings.

• Twelve person-hours of work per share at the farm. Working at the farm gives CSA members a chance to meet one another and see how our food is grown, and helps the farmer! There are plenty of options for day and time choice, as well as carpooling. Supervised kids are welcome. There is a limited number of off-farm tasks for people who require them. 

• If you live near the farm, you can pick up your produce each week on your scheduled pick-up day. You can choose from three pick-up days: Tuesday and Thursday (pick-up between 11:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m.), or Saturday (pick-up between between 11:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m.)

• If you live in the Boston area, you can join a pick-up cooperative. A co-op is a group of up to ten shares who split driving responsibilities. Each week a different household drives out to the farm to pick up everyone's produce and deliver it to a local drop-off site. Each share in the co-op will drive out to the farm two or three times each season. Co-ops are currently located in Jamaica Plain, Cambridge, and Somerville.
