Fruit Shares, only Full Shares or those who pick up weekly:
Strawberries
Cherries
Rhubarb
Eggs are for both Full Shares (weekly pick-ups) and Half Shares (bi-weekly pick-ups)
Come on by Abrons Arts Center at 466 Grand Street today, rain or shine, between 5:15pm and 8pm to collect your first share of the season! Here is the info about the share today:
The list below is for one share of produce. If you ordered two shares (equivalent to the FULL share last season) you will pick up double this amount. Please remember it is early in the season so don’t be concerned about the limited amount – there is more to come!!
We are as excited as you are to begin picking up fresh veggies and fruit – but we still haven’t had word from Norwich Farm what our start date is. Due to the long winter and cool spring this year will start a couple weeks later than last year, that just means we will go a little later into the fall. We promise that as soon as we know the date we will send out an email to all the members and post it on the website. Until then…
Registration for Grand Street CSA’s 2013 Season is now Closed.
If you would like to be added to our Waitlist for 2014, we will notify you next year as soon as registration opens.
