Sliding Scale Pricing

A sliding scale is used to encourage people to pay according to their available resources. Those with greater financial privilege contribute more, allowing those with less access, to pay according to their means. This allows the farm to sustain its services while making accessibility as broad as possible.
How does the sliding scale work? In an effort to make our shares more widely accessible, we offer 3 different CSA pricing options that correspond to the 3 bottles pictured below:
Bottle 1 = +20% market value, Bottle 2 = market value, and Bottle 3 = -20% market value.
Payment by installment is also an option; reach out by email and we’ll figure out a plan that works for everyone.

How do I choose what to pay?
The Green Bottle chart below expands our understanding of financial privilege and experience. Please use it to determine the level you’re able to invest. See below for image description.

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 between 8 & 14 different items depending on whether it is early, mid or late season..
Each share will typically include one or more of each of these:
•allium (garlic, onion or leeks)
•bunched greens (kale, chard, arugula, or collard greens )
•“fruits” of some kind (tomatoes, snap peas, summer squash, apples, etc)
•fresh herbs (basil, parsley, cilantro, sage, dill, thyme, etc)
•roots (beets, potatoes, turnips, rutabaga, radishes and carrots)
other additions like asparagus, fennel, 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 mid 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
We will have the produce displayed for members to make selections-Farmers market style. We will have signs with the item name and number available to each member. 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-3pm
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).

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
3) if you fail to show up, we may donate your share to someone in need

How do I pay

for my share?

We prefer a check by snail mail but if that doesn't work for you, include that info in the comment field of your sign up please. We have used Venmo as an option in the past, but they charge 3% to businesses so its not ideal.  We want to look into other options, but haven't gotten around to it yet, ideas anyone? Turns out seeding the crops calls us away....
We recognize that a CSA share can be a big commitment, and want to offer convenient and approachable payment options. If you need special arrrangements, please reach out to us.
