Is A CSA Right For Me?
The choice between a CSA Membership and traditional pay-as-you-shop is largely a personal one. Either way, you will have access to all of our delicious fresh vegetables (including bulk) and canned goods. And either way, you will have your choice of which and how much produce you get each time you visit the farmers market.
A CSA provides overall savings, makes your shopping and checkout more convenient, and allows you to pre-order items which will be set aside for you even if you arrive later in the market. It also allows you to pay a discounted rate up front- no worries about paying every time you shop. Whichever you choose, we're happy to provide you a season full of healthy and delicious produce!
Take the test below to help you decide...
My Way CSA
Do you regularly enjoy fresh vegetables?
Do you prefer local, all-natural produce over conventionally grown and shipped produce?
Have you had enough of food-flation and prefer local farmers markets over inflated grocery prices?
Are you willing to pay in advance in order to save money?
Would you enjoy garden work in order to pay for all or half of your CSA?
Do you prefer quick and convenient checkout without the need to use your purse or wallet?
Do you can, freeze, or pickle vegetables?
Do you typically arrive after the first hour of the farmers market?
Will making a commitment help you stay true to a healthier diet and lifestyle?
Do you prefer supporting local family farms and the local economy over the corporate food system?
If you answer yes to most of these questions, a My Way CSA may be a great choice for you!

Pay-As-You-Shop
Do you eat vegetables only sporadically during the summer season?
Are you only an occasional farmers market customer?
Are you OK with buying a large portion of your produce from the grocery store, even during the growing season?
Do you prefer paying full prices as you go, rather than committing to a CSA membership?
Do you prefer the freedom to shop and make choices in the moment, without feeling committed?
Do you enjoy eating fresh vegetables and shopping at farmers markets, but just don't see the advantage of pre-paying for a CSA membership?
If you answered yes to these questions, we're glad to have you as a pay-as-you-shop customer! Click on the button below to find us at area Farmers Markets.
