CSA for Spider Web Gardens
Due to overwhelming interest we have now closed the vegetable CSA to new members for the 2010 growing season. We will still have a plentiful variety of vegetables available at both farm stands; one stand is located in the little white building at Spider Web (252 Middle Road) and the other is just down the road at the junction of Union Wharf Road. Both stands are open 24 hours and are self serve. If what you are looking for isn’t available check in at the shop and ask. For a list of some of the vegetables that we are growing this year click here. Recipes are included; just click on a vegetable on the list. The CSA for cut flowers is still open; this would make a wonderful gift and will bring joy all summer long. This will be cut your own flowers from the cut flower garden for 15 visits with up to 20 stems/visit. The cost of this will be $100.00/share. The cut flower garden will have more flowers than ever with some new varieties including edibles and culinary herbs.
Still interested in a vegetable CSA? The Community School in South Tamworth has memberships available. The farm is certified organic. Check out their website for more information
