You can become a 2010 CSA shareholder directly on-line or by mail. More information about the 2010 CSA will soon be available at the WEI website. It is important for returning CSA shareholders to know that we are incorporating many of your exciting suggestions for the coming year and welcome special requests for your favorite vegetable at this point in time, while we are ordering organic seeds for 2010. Checks for the 2010 CSA can be sent to WEI. P.O. Box 128, North Branch, MN 55056.
The cost this year is $570/share for 18 weeks. Deliveries generally start the second or third week in June, potentially the second week this year with our new 100 ft. hoop house in early operation. CSA boxes will be delivered to your preferred drop-site every week on Thursdays.
Deductions this year include $50 for those of you who can pick up directly from the WEI Amador Hill farm; $25 for those of you who are current WEI members; and a $20 coupon in the 2010 Blue Sky Guide. We are also again collecting individual donations for CSA boxes WEI will provide to Harvest for the Hungry: You can check that box when you purchase your CSA.
Payment plans include: $190(three payments), $285 (two payments) or $570 (one payment). All pre-payments ($190 or $285) are due before May 1, 2010. All final payments are due in full June 1, 2010.
Your CSA share helps support WEI’s farm program guided by a mission of environmental and agricultural justice and policy work for a more sustainable planet and better food for all. We hope to serve you well this year with great produce, additional selections of North Circle value-added products, and many recipes and storage tips. The WEI Amador Hill Farm is organically certified by Midwest Organic Services Association (MOSA).
