WINTER CSA INFO

To sign up for our Winter CSA and/or the summer extension please use the sign up form on our home page. 

Our winter CSA runs for 4 months – November to February.    
There are 2 pick up locations or a delivery option to choose from: 
the 2 pick up locations are: 
1) Orioles community centre (448 Burnell st)
2) The farm (700 Mcphillips road)  

All pick ups are once per month from 10-3 pm on the following Saturdays of each month.  

  • Saturday Nov 16
  • Saturday Dec 21
  • Saturday Jan 18
  • Saturday Feb 15

3) Delivery is on the same day as the pick ups.  We use a delivery service for this and the fee for delivery will be as follows (distance is from pick up location).  Delivery is for within the city only 
 
0 – 3 km- $10
3 – 15 km- $12
15 + km- $15 
For orders over 50 lb an additional charge will apply.  


The cost of the winter CSA is $197 for 100 lb of veggies.  So on average it works out to 25 lb of veggies/month, but you can pick up any amount you like each month until your 100 lbs are used up.  For example you could take 25lb/month, or 50 lb a month for 2 months – the possibilites are endless!  For veggie selection you can take however much of whatever veggie’s you’d like.  For example you could take all 100 lb of carrots if that’s what you wanted.  And if 100 lb is too much for you or too little and and you’d like to sign up for a different amount of veggies then 100 lb that’s no problem,  just send us an email and we will calculate your price at $1.97/lb 

The veggies that we’ll have for the winter CSA are: onions, potatos, carrots, beets, cabbage, winter squash (buttnernut, acorn, spaghetti, kobucha, hubbard delicata), celeriac, radish, turnip.   We’ll also have brussels sprouts, lettuce, spinach, bok choi, chard, kale and garlic for purchase as add ons while quantities last.  

We don’t gaurantee that all the veggies will be available for all four months, but we’ve got lots of the popular veggies (carrots, potatos, beets, onions, cabbage,) so we gaurantee to have those  those right up the the last pick up in February.    Squash will probably only be available for the first 2 months (ie. November and December)
