CSA Info & Pricing
The cost of a share for the 20 week season is $420 + 1% WV sales tax ($424.20). You have the choice of letting us select the contents of the weekly box -the Farmer's Choice share- as is typical of most other CSAs, or signing in to our online produce stand to substitute items and create a custom box. The Farmer's Choice share provides 6 -10 items per week and seeks to provide as much diversity as possible throughout the season. The Farmer's Choice share is best for those people who enjoy the surprise and culinary challenge of letting us choose what goes in their produce delivery each week. For a sample Farmer's Choice share click here.
Other CSA members know exactly what they want and will customize their box accordingly online (these members can also choose to receive a Farmer's Choice share sometimes). For bigger families, or on special occasions, when you might need more vegetables than a regular share provides, the online produce stand allows all our members to order additional items anytime you might need them.

We strive to offer maximum convenience and flexibilty in your choice of veggies. To that end, CSA members can rollover up to $25 worth of veggies from week to week. This comes in handy if you are going on vacation or planning a big dinner party. Simply remove items from your CSA box one week and use their value by the end of the season.
More Great Food
We also feature a selection of Firefly Farms goat cheeses, Goot Essa cow's milk cheeses, and fresh bread from the New Day Bakery. These delicious items can now be purchased either a la carte each week or as an additional share. In either case, the items will be delivered with your CSA vegetables. We've chosen these local producers because their yummy food is a great accompaniment to our farm-fresh produce.We are happy to offer Bread and Cheese shares. Bread and Cheese shares allow you to select from a variety of options each week. Pricing is as follows.
- Bread Share- $101.65 + 1% WV sales tax ($102.67) Choose a loaf, from a selection of New Day Bakery breads, every week for 19 weeks (The New Day Bakery is on vacation one week.)
- Cheese Share- $183.60 + 1% WV sales tax ($185.44) Choose a piece, from a selection of Firefly Farms' goat's milk cheeses and Goot Essa's cow's milk cheeses, every week for 20 weeks

Payment
For the CSA share, a $50 deposit reserves your spot and the balance of $374.20 is due by May 15th. Pay in full by March 15th and receive a $10 credit to your CSA account!
Payment for Bread & Cheese shares is due by June 1st.
To simplify payment for any al a carte items (bread, cheese, honey) or extra veggies, we establish a web-account for each member. A positive balance means you have money to spend. A negative balance means we will eventually bill you. Your web account allows us to give you credits (like the early bird special) or refunds and allows you to purchase extras without having to write a check or enter a credit card number each time. If you don't plan to order any extras or take advantage of any specials, your balance will simply remain at $0 the whole season and you will receive the farmer's choice share (or an equivalent value of your choice of veggies) each week.
For those who plan to purchase extras throughout the season, we offer a prepayment bonus. Prepay $50 and receive $2 worth of free produce. Prepay $100 and receive $5 dollars worth of free produce. If you prefer not to prepay, no problem. You can still purchase extras at any time. We will bill you when you owe $50 or at the end of the season, whichever comes first. Money in your account can always be withdrawn at your request and any amount left over at the end of the season will be refunded.
