New Area CSA

A new farm (they've just moved their farm closer to our area) is in town. According to their site Frog Bottom Farm uses sustainable farming practices. Their Website says they".. do not use pesticides or harmful fertilizers on any of [their] crops, [and] use trace amounts of a seawater-based foliar fertilizer." They also say they irrigate from a springfed creek.

For more detailed information about this wonderful sounding farm, visit their website . They provide lots of good information.

Here is the run down of their expected CSA share contents...

How much does it cost?
A full share costs $550 (equivalent to $25/week). A half share costs $300 (equivalent to just over $13/week). Some folks split a full share with a friend or neighbor - you’re welcome to do that. We accept checks and money orders.
Where do members pick up their weekly shares?
You can pick up your weekly share at the farm or at one of several drop sites in Charlottesville, Roanoke, Lynchburg or Richmond. We’re still determining exact pick-up days and locations, and we’ll post that information right here as soon as we know it.
