Shares: Members are entitled to receive a generous box of delicious, sustainably grown produce delivered every week, YEAR ROUND, to the pick up site of their choice. (Occasionally, we may skip a week or go on an every other week schedule because of holidays, bad weather or heavy work loads)
During the local harvest season (normally July 1st to October 31st) your box will contain as wide a variety of local produce as is available to us. In the off-season, (November 1st to June 30th), your box will contain primarily vegetables and fruit we purchase from other growers and distributors. Fruit will be included in your share every week. When purchasing produce for your shares, we always strive to select the best available quality and value in Organic produce.
We offer full shares and half shares.
1 bushel * | 1/2 bushel | $35/week | $24/week |
* A bushel is approximately 2 large grocery bags full of produce.
Payment: WE DO BUSINESS ON THE HONOR SYSTEM - Members are asked to keep track of and pay their account without us billing them. PLEASE KEEP TRACK OF YOUR ACCOUNT. That way we are free to devote most of our time to distributing great food and making connections with local farmers. Because we often have to make changes to special orders, members who place special orders should pay at pick up or send us a check after pick up, as appropriate.
Members who pick up at True Nature, Cherubs, Maple Street Market, Julie\'s Grocery, Oak Park, Lombard or St. Ignatius pay, at the pick up site, by check payable to: Tom Ulick. (Cash is ok at True Nature). All other members pay by check mailed to :

Membership Fee: All members pay an annual membership fee of $60, which is payable on joining and on March 1st of each year. (Your first March renewal will be prorated.) In cases of financial hardship, membership fees may be paid in installments. The initial membership fee, minus any outstanding charges, is fully refundable if a member chooses to discontinue C.S.A. membership within 30 days of joining. Membership fees help us with overhead and other C.S.A. expenses. |
