WELCOME TO
2024 CSA - Week 8
(S) - Small Share, (M) - Medium Share, (L) - Large Share
This key indicates which share sizes get what produce. Different share sizes will often receive different produce.
We will vary what goes into the share each week to spread the bounty equitably to all members.
There are times when mother nature puts a kink in our plans, so while we can't guarantee that all of these items will be in your share, you can expect to see most of them and sometimes a few extras.
