2012 Happy Half Acre Farm CSA

2012 Happy Half Acre CSA

This picture is my 2nd days worth of work in the garden. After so much rain I feel as though I am getting a late start! This is the first time in weeks the garden has been dry enough to work in. I can't even tell you how good it felt to be working outside again! I have a good start and the work has just begun!

I am very excited to start a SMALL CSA this year! After attending the Georgia Organics Conference last weekend I really learned a lot about management and maximizing the space that I have. With good succession planting and LOTS of vertical gardening I really expect a large yield in my produce this year.

Membership Includes
16 weeks of produce free from chemical pesticide and fertilizer.

A large variety of produce items

Depending on availability there may be 1/2 dozen country eggs.

Access to the gardens is welcomed and encouraged! Come out and see how your food is grown!

Supporting a small local farmer. Happy Half Acre Farms strives to produce healthy food that is good for you and our environment as well as to raise awareness of good food choices.

Fees and Payment
I will be starting the CSA May 15th and will do 16 week increments. Each share is $375. You save $25 by paying for your share upfront by April 15th, 2012 which makes the total $350. The other option is a bi monthly payment of $47. Post dated checks are required for the payment plan.

Half shares are available for exactly half the cost. Payment options are the same as full shares. Half shares will be picked up every other week.

You may reserve your spot by filling out the application along with a $15 membership fee. Membership fee is waived for prepay. You can get an application by e-mailing me at tirogers99@gmail.com

Pick-up Times and Locations
Shares may be picked up on Mondays from 1:00 p.m. - 7:00 p.m. at Happy Half Acre Farm.
Address is 2558 Old Clarksville Pike, Ashland City TN 37015

We may allow pick ups at the local Pleasant View or Ashland City Farmers Market. An e-mail will be sent closer to market openings when we decide what markets we will attend.
