To stay in the loop about farm events and happenings

Pick up Time and Location

This year we will be offering three locations for pick-up!

• On premise at Hopshire, Thursdays from 4-6:30pm
• East Hill Plaza farmers market from 3-6pm
• Danby, TBD

Pick up Style

We will be offering an option between a Market style, of taking what is available from the table, as well as boxed style, for those looking to grab and go. The boxes will also be available to be customizable. (The Danby location pick-up will be boxed option only)

Sizes & Pricing

As someone who has been low income for a long time, offering a sliding scale is something that I really enjoy being able to offer. Also, this year I want to lean into the concept that it is a “share” of the produce. Please base your size off of how much you anticipate you will need for the year. 

Small Share
$400-$600 per 20 week season ($20-$30 per week)
For one individual veggie eater, or for two less hungry veggie eaters.

Standard Share
$550-$750 per 20 week season ($27.50-$37.50 per week)
For two to three hungry veggies eaters.

Boxed/Customizable
+$30/50

Though it is a sliding scale, boxed and customizable boxes will have an add-on charge of $30 ($1.50/week) for boxed, and $50 ($2.50/week) for customizable for the season to offset the materials and labor that go into making these.

Payment

A $200 deposit will be requested upon sign-up, and the rest of payment will be due by May 1. If you are in need of a payment plan, please let us know and we would be happy to help you out. Early payment helps us to purchase seeds and potting soil as well as to have some financial security as we start the year.  Payment can be dropped off to Hopshire brewery, or mailed to Megan’s home address which can be given when confirmation is sent out.

Add-Ons

(All of the add-ons except for the coffee will only be available for pick-up on Thursday, Hopshire Pick-up* )

Hopshire Beer
$175 per 20 week season ($8.75 per half-growler)

Did you really think we’d partner up with Hopshire Brewery without offering a beer CSA? By purchasing this add-on, you’ll receive a Hopshire half-growler of your choice each week. (For this you must bring back your clean* growler each week for refill. If you forget you can receive a Crowler with a $1 materials fee)

Meat
$250 per 20 week season ($12.50 per week)

Each week you will receive the finest locally raised meat available. Most of the cuts will be Hopshire Angus raised on pasture and spent brewing grains without growth hormones or antibiotics. But the mix will also include high quality pork sausage and bacon from Schrader Farms or Crosswind Farms.

Bread
$120 per 20 week season ($6 per week)
A new addition this year! We will be offering an add-on of locally made bread, using Farmers Ground Flour, by our dear friends of Sheepy Hollow, in Ithaca.

Coffee
$150 or $300 per 20 week season ($15 per week)
A new addition this year! We will be offering an add-on of locally roasted Forty-Weight coffee. This will be a 12oz bag every or every other week.

Cheese and Yogurt
Cheese: $160 per 20 week season. ($8/week)
Yogurt: $160 per 20 week season. (24oz) ($8/week)
Another new addition! We will be offering an add-on of local Old Chatham Creamery goat and sheep cheese and sheep yogurt (24 oz)

 

Solidarity Share

Upon sign-up, you’ll have the option of adding a $25nSolidarity Share. We’ll tally up all donated shares and pledge to donate an equivalent number of vegetable boxes to local organizations and households in need throughout the growing season. This has been a really special gift to be able to give in past years, and we thank you all so much for contributing!

(** Add-ons will be dependent on hitting certain quotas and a few will have maximum sign-ups**)

Megan began her farming experience shortly after graduating from Eastern Connecticut State with a degree in Biology. She has since worked as a full-time farm hand and livestock volunteer, with experience ranging from fiber works, high intensive vegetable production, milking cows, and operating farmers markets.  Megan enjoys working with her hands sewing, crafting, and processing food– cooking, preserving, brewing, and more. She loves farming for the balance of learning something new almost everyday combined with the meditative flow of weeding carrots for hours on end.
