Full Vegetable Share Spring- Suitable for families and culinary enthusiasts.

If you want to experience the great diversity of vegetables available in the Mid-Atlantic region this is the share type for you. We love growing and experimenting with the more unique varieties and we hope that you are equally as enthusiastic. But don’t be mistaken, the cooking staples like onions, garlic, zucchini and tomatoes are just as exciting to us. Furthermore, our produce is more delicious than you can find in the store for two reasons – the Certified Organic methods we practice, and the quickness in which we deliver the produce to you. Why is organic more flavorful? Because when plants defend themselves from pests and climate (rather than depend on chemicals) they develop strong immunities – which translate into a robust array of vitamins and minerals. Those nutrients, once a plant is harvested, slowly diminish. Since we deliver the produce within a day or so of harvest, the nutrients will be at their peak availability. 

Half Vegetable Share Spring- Suitable for small households and students.

The Half Vegetable share was created to strike a balance for those who typically cook two or three times a week and those who prefer the traditional kitchen staples. These items are the same size and quality as what is included in the Full Share. There’s only one difference: the quantity. Each week brings 4 – 9 types of produce including lettuce, cabbage, onions, beets, tomatoes, cucumbers and potatoes.
