It's easy to get your CSA

The drop-off locations are:

• North Seattle, Wallingford: 5207 Woodlawn Ave N. CSA will be ready for pickup by 3pm.

• South Seattle, Hillman City: 4827 S. Holly St. CSA will be ready for pickup by 4pm.

You will find your CSA in the cooler. It will be in a visible, well marked location. We're using canvas totes in an effort to reduce and reuse materials. The following week the CSA will be in an identical tote. Please feel free to hold on to a bag, or return it to the pick-up site. We will wash them and reuse them.

Let us know if it isn't easy to get the CSA, and we'll make it better. Contact Us.

Storage tips

Storage tips have been added to the website! These are now available in a permanent location on the blog.

A Note on Dirt: Some items we wash, and some we don't. We wash items to remove excess dirt before packing. If we don't wash, it's usually because the item will store or transport better unwashed. Basil, cucumbers, peas, squash - these are all examples of items that will last longer if stored dry. We recommend rinsing as needed before consuming your produce.

Farm News: Farm Stand Now Open

In collaboration with our small community of farms, we opened a farm stand! We can be found Thursdays through Sundays off of State Route 20 on Lafayette Rd. between Burlington and Sedro Woolley. A variety of products will be available from the 3 participating farms, including fresh vegetables, herbs, flower bouquets, dried herbs, and plant starts.

Once again, thanks for supporting us! Happy to be your farmers for the 2019 growing season. Hope to connect with you in person soon for a drop-site chat, a Sunday dinner, or a farm visit! - Leah & John
