CSA FAQs

What is a CSA?


Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) is a program in which individuals buy into the farm by purchasing a share. In turn, they receive a bountiful selection of fresh produce every week throughout the season. Shares are purchased before the start of the growing season. This allows farmers to focus on growing and delivering the highest-quality, best-tasting fruits and vegetables for shareholders in the summer.
Buying a farm share is a great opportunity to eat seasonally and try different foods. You will receive the best of what a local harvest has to offer, and experience the fun of letting the season form your menu.
Most importantly, a CSA program establishes a relationship between a farm and the local community. In Japan, the name for CSA is “teikei”, meaning, in a sense, to put the farmer’s face on the food.

What can I expect

in my share?

The contents of your share will vary with the seasonality of the produce.  Members pick up their produce share at the farm, weekly, or every other week depending on the share selected. The share sizes are the same, usually between 8-14 different items.
Each share will typically include one or more of each of these:
•alliums (garlic, onion or leeks)
•bunched greens (kale, chard, arugula, or collard greens )
•“fruits” of some kind (tomatoes, snap peas, summer squash etc)
•fresh herbs (basil, parsley, cilantro, sage, dill, thyme, etc)
•roots (beets, potatoes, turnips, radishes and carrots)
other additions like salad greens, strawberries, broccoli, melons, and sweet potatoes will fill out the share as they become seasonally available.
Check out our About page to see a complete list of the fruits and vegetables Blue Spring Farm grows.

When and where

do I pick up

my share?

The first CSA distribution typically occurs in the last week of May.  We will contact everyone by e-mail as the day approaches.  When registering for the CSA, you will have options for pick-up days.
Wednesdays 3pm - 6:30pm
On this day, we are trying something new! You can put together your own share with our help. We will have the produce harvested and displayed for members to make selections-Farmers market style. There will be a list for the week. The hope is that you are able to get the right amount of produce for your household size, your schedule and limit waste and reduce packaging!
Saturdays 12pm-4pm
On this day, shares will be prepacked and brought out of the cooler for you upon your arrival. Some weeks, you’ll also be able to select individualized items (heirloom tomatoes, melons, winter squash etc). Saturday will also be a neighborhood market day with our farm stand all decked out with extra produce, flowers and bakery goods for sale!

What do I do if

I'm running late

or miss a pickup?

If you know that you will be out of town during your pick-up, please let us know the week prior. You can either:  
1) ask a friend or family member to pick up your share while you're gone.  OR
2) request to temporarily switch to the alternative pick up day that week
If something unexpected comes up, please call or text us and we will hold your share until the following day.

How do I pay

for my share?

If sending a check by snail mail doesn't work for you, we can offer Venmo as an option.  We recognize that a CSA share can be a big commitment, and want to offer convenient and approachable payment options. We do ask for a $100 reservation fee, to be paid upfront with your registration, with the remaining balance paid by the start of the season. If you need special arrrangements, please reach out to us.
