CSA Shares!

We're happy to announce this year's CSA Shares! The poster is here but we thought we'd give you a little more info here as well. 


CSA Shares are a great way to support local farmers and get delicious, fresh produce every week. You pay the farmer upfront and then get a weekly selection of their seasonal produce for the length of the share (usually 10 weeks). Above is a photo of one of last year's share.

Glebocki Farm CSA Share


- Full share = 10 weeks
- Cost: $300 to be paid in full at the first pick up 
- Start: September 16th 
- End: November 18th
- Each share includes 6-8 different varieties of vegetables and weighs about 12-14 lbs

- Half Share: If you cannot find anybody to split a share with you but you are still 
interested in buying half of a share, email us and we will try and match you with 
another person also buying half a share.

- Subsidized Share: If you would like a share but cannot afford the full price, please 
email vassarcoop@gmail.com with your name and the amount you would need 
subsidized and we will do our best to match that amount (add part saying we are 
doing this because we know local/organic food is expensive and want everyone who is 
interested to be able to participate)
