When is the you pick open?

Dawn-dusk, 7 days a week.

Remember to pick only what is listed in the weekly newsletter, stay on the paths, and bring your own scissors, bags, bands etc.

The you pick is our gift to CSA members and is not open to the public.

 

Can I switch pickup days?

Full shares certainly can! Just let me know before 7 PM Tuesday the week of your pickup.

Small shares CANNOT pick up at the farm. The small share is designed specifically for the boxed pickup. They often get different items and quantities than we give out at the farm. Sorry for the inconvenience!

Are the newsletters important?

YES! They tell you important updates to the farm rules, pickup procedures, and what’s available in the you pick! They also give you a forecast of what’s in your share each week and recipes that tell you how to use it! There is always a “short version” at the top of the page that tell you what you NEED to know before you come to the farm!

It goes out EVERY WEEK on Mondays.
