2012 Winter Shares (January 24 – April 24)

The winter program will consist of 7 prepacked boxes, delivered to your pickup location of choice every other week for 14 weeks (January 24th – April 24th). Price will be $50/box, and we’ll be introducing a small gas fee this winter of just $1/pickup to help us deal with ever-rising gas prices and thereby keep your food coming to the city affordably – a little to you means a lot to your farmers! Total cost for the winter season will be $357*.

(*new members pay an additional one-time admin fee of $20 = $377)

The Box:

Local winter food is more than just potatoes!  Every box will be varied and beautiful, containing a wide assortment of winter greens (kale, tatsoi, salad mix, sprouts, etc), root veggies (potatoes, beets, carrots, leeks, sweet potatoes, Jerusalem artichokes, celeriac, winter radish, garlic….), homemade preserves (pickles, jams, honey, maple….) and fun! (popcorn, cornmeal, hominy, dry beans….) – with all the quality and goodness you know and love!  We’ll work hard to keep your winter local eating experience diverse and delicious, providing regular recipes to go with your ingredients as well as local eating tips and support on the blog – eating local through the winter is easier than you think, and much more fun when you’ve got a community behind you!
