Harvest Calendar Be Wise Ranch CSA FAQ
Share Plans
The share, which typically provides a week's supply of produce for a large family or for three or four adults, costs $30.00 per week. You would receive 10-12 items shown on the harvest calendar each week, with the content varying by season. For example, a box might contain: 10 tomatoes, 2 avocados, 5 # oranges, 3 lemons, green beans, squash, beets, lettuces and carrots.
We offer on a weekly or every-other-week delivery basis after you become our quarterly billing members. There is no additional cost for this option.
Payment (For existing members)
We request that all of our members pre-pay the costs of their selected Share Plan on a quarterly basis. We ask this for two reasons:
1.We
need to have an idea of how many families to plant for.
2.We need to keep our bookkeeping and collection costs to a minimum so
that your costs are low, our CSA program remains financially viable and
our time can be spent planting, cultivating and harvesting your crops.
