Winter CSAs

Extend Your Fresh Organic Vegetable Season with Our Winter CSA

2024/2025 Fall/Winter CSA

 Sorry, Fall/Winter CSA Is Full!

Again this year, Free Choice CSA! Get the fresh, Certified Organic produce you choose. Thanks for your patience as the Harvie system we used previously is closing down and it took us a while to line up the programming and payment methods. We feel the new, similar system we’ve selected is even better!

Free Choice CSA With CSAware!

When you pick up your Walker Farm share, you are setting yourself up for health success by stocking your fridge with the most seasonal, fresh and nutritious food you can get. And rest assured, whatever the latest diet trend is this year, fresh vegetables are always on the menu! Always!

A Walker Farm share will help you eat more healthy and local food, help you combat food waste issues and a fear of cooking all while directly supporting our farm & crew!

CUSTOMIZED BOXES

Customized boxes based on what YOU want! Not a fan of beets? Want to eat all the carrots? Customized boxes will allow you to select preferences at sign-up and then customize each week based on our harvest. This will help you actually use everything in the box because you’ll love everything you are getting!

“I liked the idea of being able to see and edit my baskets contents before pick up day. Customization reduces waste and makes menu planning more efficient.” CSA MEMBER

REDUCE FOOD WASTE

Food waste is the #1 reason folks don’t return to a CSA and we want to fix that! Because you are getting what you want, you’ll see less food getting tossed or composted which is going to ensure you are getting the biggest bang for your buck.

“I adore farm-fresh food; however sometimes with a “regular” share you get piles and piles of something you just can’t stand. CSAware lets me tweak my share so food doesn’t go to waste.”  CSA MEMBER

Order “Extra” Items

Want to order “extra” items from the farm? With just a few clicks of a button we’ll put those items in your box which means less trips to the grocery store and more time in your day!

Vacation Holds

Vacation planned?  No problem. You can easily reschedule your box to accommodate your busy life, so no more missing out on those veggies you paid for.

Note: Start date second Saturday after Thanksgiving!

For the 17th year Walker Farm will be offering a fall/winter CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) food plan that can extend your enjoyment of fresh local organic produce for an extra 6 weeks after the farmstand closes on Thanksgiving. We will offer Saturdays or Sundays as options for pickup of your share. Your specific pickup day will be decided after signups are complete. The CSA pickups will start December 7 or 8, 2024 and continue for the next 5 weeks – 12/14 or 12/15, 12/21 or 12/22, 12/28 or 12/29, 1/4 or 1/5 and 1/11 or 1/12/2025.

This year we are offering two share sizes. If you would like to receive the large share of Walker Farm organic produce, price will be $300 for 6 winter-001weekly pickups of $50.00 worth of our Certified Organic produce. The second option, a smaller share, will be $240 with 6 weekly pickups of $40.00 worth of Walker Farm produce. Your share will be able to be customized to reflect what you like and don’t like or you can simply take the default selection as in previous years. You’ll be able to add on a Benny Bread option (rotating between walnut, white and multigrain) for $48 which will give you one loaf per week for 6 weeks. Additional item add-ons will be available for separate purchase throughout the season so you can choose just the products you want. Honey from  Walker Farm bees, maple syrup from Glabach’s Sugarhouse and other local items as well as farmstand items will be available for optional purchase each week on-line if you would like to add those to your order.

Weekly pickup will be Curbside on Saturdays and Sundays at Walker Farm. You’ll drive down by our display greenhouse and give the crew member your name so we can deliver the share you selected right to your vehicle. Pickup time will be between 11 AM and 2 PM. Please try to have a neighbor or friend pick up if you are out of town. If you are on vacation, there will be a new “hold” option.

The produce might include spinach, broccoli, lettuce, mesclun mix, leeks, parsley, cilantro, arugula, celery, chard, winter squash, potatoes, sweet potatoes, onions, radishes, beets, turnips, carrots, cabbage, shallots, garlic, parsnips, Brussels sprouts, kale, and more. This year we anticipate having a good fall harvest despite the erratic growing year! Our onion crop was very good and we’re excited about our sweet potato, potato and winter squash crops. Plus, our new moveable greenhouse will allow us to plant more winter greens for your meals! Of course there’s a lot of autumn to go and with the roller coaster weather ride we’ve been experiencing all summer, you never can be too sure what crops will do well and which ones will falter.

We will be selecting produce for the weekly shares from fresh crops overwintered in greenhouses and harvested crops stored in our coolers. Our seventeenth year of winter CSA will average 220 shares offered on a “first come, first serve” basis. Last year we had your great support and filled up the CSA.

We hope you join our CSA this year and we promise you the finest selection of fresh and tasty organic produce available in the season.
