2019 CSA Produce Guide!

For those who have signed up, thank you for choosing to eat local, fresh and chemical free food by being a part of our CSA!

It looks like Spring may have started to arrive after an excessive winter here in the Midwest. It has been wonderful to see the chickens out and about the last few days because they haven’t left the coop in months! Not exaggerating one bit.

So we wanted to go over our expected crops for this year. This list is a general estimate based on years past, but we’re (mostly) confident in it’s accuracy. The intention is to give our CSA customers a general idea of what to we’ll have available each month.
