FAQs:
What is a CSA?
-
Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) is a direct, food-share partnership between you and the farmer. It entails purchasing an entire season’s worth of vegetables up front. Purchasing a CSA share gives the customer consistent access to vegetables at a discounted price while also bringing the farmer an income at an important time of the year when cash-flow is low but they are ordering seeds, building infrastructure, and improving tools and production practices.
Why is there an administration fee?
-
The fee helps to cover the cost of credit card processing, as well as the back-end office work of keeping the CSA program running.
What happens if I want to skip a week?
-
We do not offer refunds on any weeks missed. Please offer your bag to a friend of family member. They make for great gifts during the holiday season.
What if the farm is affected by a natural disaster?
-
A CSA program revolves around the concept of sharing the risk and rewards of local agriculture. Because we are located in Northern Colorado, we are prone to hail, extreme drought, and severe temperature shifts. Although we do our best to protect ourselves from these natural conditions (we grow a portion of our produce in greenhouses, we source water from natural precipitation, wells and ditches, and we have several strategies to keep our produce warm in the winter), we are not invincible. Thus, we include a "Hand of God" clause in our CSA that, if disaster should strike, our members would share the burden. If our harvest is dramatically reduced or we are unable to provide as much product diversity as we originally intended, we will do our best to fill in the gaps with what is locally available and within our means.
