CSA 2010 Application

  

Sign up now for the 2010 Growing season Csa's!

By treating you and your family to the healthful goodness of Skipper Farms fresh Produce, you’ll not only be saving yourself precious time by letting us do much of your shopping for you, but also you'll be contributing to the success of sustainable agriculture and a small family farm. However, perhaps the best part is, our produce! It is local, fresher, better tasting, more nutritious, and a much better quality produce than from a supermarket (which is rarely local).


Our produce is picked fresh daily and sent straight to our markets for sale!
   About Csa's
CSA  shares do vary a lot from one season to the next and even weekly due to changing growing conditions. A CSA is not a buying club to fill your pantry. A CSA does give you locally grown fresh produce to provide the nutrional benefits that studies have shown are more beneficial to eat for better health. It also boosts the farmers capability to sustain local agriculture through profitability and providing a market for the crops.


Each week your CSA share will be available for you to pick up at your designated location either in Virginia Beach or Chesapeake. Additional items will be available from our large variety of produce, flowers, canned goods, nuts, cheeses, and free range eggs for you to purchase "a la carte".

This year we are offering two share sizes. A family share and a couple share. All Shares will be provided for the 18 week period beginning June 4, 2010 thru October 1, 2010. A share consists of one basket per week to be picked up each friday. The price of a family share is $563.75 and the price of a couple share (2/3 the size of a family share) is $377.71 which includes sales tax  

Below are a few samples of what a family share can consist of each week throughout the growing season. These are merely some examples and are not guaranteed selections nor quantities, because of  the variations in weather and growing conditions.
