Winter Wellness CSA 2024
Greens are growing and the winter greenhouse is filling up at a good pace!
Last year our Winter
Greens CSA evolved into our Winter Wellness CSA, which felt good and
natural, and was well received. Let’s go again!!
As always, the highlight
is our winter greens! Pea shoots, microgreens and salad mix will be accompanied
by canned goods and herbal wellness items. This season the apple harvest WAS
abundant, so apples will accompany the first 2-3 pick ups
Winter Greens Feature
– organic pea shoots, zesty microgreens, mustard greens salad mix – one per
pick up.
Canned Goods Feature
– applesauce, apple butter, jam/jelly, pizza sauce, salsa – with 1-2 items in
each share pick up.
Herbal Wellness Items
Feature – one salve, lotion bar, elderberry syrup kit and
more – holistic wellness comes from more than just food.
Produce
Items Feature – apples
2-3x, garlic 1x, radish.
Winter Wellness CSA will
have 7 pick-ups November—March. We like to start the
week before Thanksgiving. Pick ups will look like à
Nov(1), Dec(2), Jan(2), Feb(1), Mar(1), by my best estimate, pick ups per
month. Greens are picked up at the farm store, or the Mankato Winter Farmers
Market (ONLY if dates line up). Shares are roughly every several weeks,
dependent on the growth of greens. I am better at anticipating this now, but
every once and a while I may have to push back a week if growth is slow (clouds
and cold and such). Flexibility is a must.
Investment is $290. $145
due up front for reservation, with remaining $145 due by first pick up.
Eggs – In
the past I have reserved ahead but cannot this year. We have more regular,
weekly farm store customers, so availability is more limited. As always, I will
do what I can for you! I am at chicken maximum capacity, so I am a little at
their whim!
Holler to
reserve your share. There are only 9 available!
