Mid Season DISCOUNT to Join the Huntington CSA! Valid until AUGUST 31st ONLY! PLEASE LET YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS KNOW! Thank you!

Greetings!

We’ve never done this before but we’re going to try it, and see what happens!

Green Thumb CSA – Huntington’s season is either half over, or there’s half left as of August 14th…depending on whether you’re a pessimist or an optimist!

It’s a 34 week season so there’s approx 17 weeks left starting this week. The CSA season ends December 11th.

Because the season is half over, Green Thumb CSA – Huntington is taking half off of the Work Deposit ($50 instead of $100) and asking half the amount of hours (6 hours instead of 12) if you’re interested in working at the CSA to get that $50 back!

So, as always…it’s a good deal if you don’t work at the CSA, and a great deal if you do!

This offer is only valid till August 31st! After that, you’ll have to wait till next April to start getting any produce from Green Thumb CSA – Huntington.

If you’re interested in joining (or visiting)…there’s no time to waste!

There are two checks needed to join the CSA…

1. The farm fee that pays for the food you’re getting (the amount is based on our farmer charging us $18.50 per week though the retail value is closer to $20 to $25)…

This is the farm fee depending on the date of your first CSA pickup day…
8/21 - $314.50
8/28 - $296.00
9/4 - $277.50

2. The second check is the Work Deposit plus a yearly Administration Fee (which can be dated one month after the date you start picking up at the CSA)
$50 (Work Deposit) + 25 (Administration) = $75

So far this season we’ve gotten the following foods and there’s a LOT more great things to eat from now till December (and if you don’t know what something is, every week you get info sheets to tell you all you need to know)…

Arugula, Asparagus, Basil, Beets (Chiogga, Red), Black Turtle Beans, Broccoli, Broccoli Raab, Cabbage (Green, Red) Carrots, Chives, Garlic Chives, Cilantro, Collard Greens, Cucumbers, Eggplant (Italian, Purple Rain, White), Fava Beans, Jerusalem Artichokes, Curly Cress, Kale (Curly, Red Russian, White Russian, White Siberian), Kale Raab, Lavender (yes, it’s edible!), Lettuce (Green Crisp, Green Leaf, Green Oakleaf, Red Crisp, Red Leaf, Red Romaine, Romaine), Mint, Mizuna, Mustard Greens, Onions, Oregano, Parsley (Italian Flat Leaf) Peas, Radicchio (Chiogga, Traviso) Radishes (Easter Egg, French Breakfast, Red), Rhubarb, Rosemary, Sage, Savory, Scallions, Snap Beans (Dragon Tongue, Green, Purple, Yellow/Wax) Snow Peas, Sorrel, Strawberries, Sugar Snap Peas, Summer Squash (Costata Romanesco, Eight Ball, Golden, Kousa, Patty Pan, Yellow, Zucchini), Sweet Peppers (Green, Purple), Swiss Chard (Green, Rainbow), Tarragon, Tat Soi, Tomatoes (Orange, Red, Rose, Yellow, Red Roma/Paste/Plum), Tomatoes – Mini (Cherry, Sungold), Turnip Greens
