Our weekly full winter produce share keeps the party going all winter long! These 20 weekly pick ups will include roots (carrots, beets, radishes, turnips, rutabaga, parsnips), onions, fresh salad greens, cabbage, cooking greens, squash, and sweet potatoes. ALSO! It will include fruits whenever available. This means local apples and (not so local) oranges and assorted citrus! We hope to be your one stop shop for all of your in season produce needs!
This weekly one size share is roughly equivalent in size to our small share during the regular season. You can expect 5-6 pounds of roots, plus 2 pounds of fruit when available (local apples and/or Florida citrus), a bag of greens, kale, winter squash while it lasts, kohlrabi and cabbage!
A quick note about the winter share offerings and schedule. Winter farming is a wonderfully exciting challenge here in western Massachusetts! We hope that you join us in this adventurous spirit and see what is possible! Knowing that we may have some gaps in production for certain crops we will do our best to work with other local farms to help fill in any gaps that we may have in our own production. This means that we may buy in greens or different root vegetables if we move through our stock prematurely. We will be up front when any of the produce we are providing is not our own and we will be sure to label it with the producers name. While we can’t say exactly what will be available each week it is our commitment to you that we will always be providing a bountiful and full share to you all winter long!
