2023 Winter CSA

Our Winter Share is now full. If you’d like to join the waitlist please fill in the form below but don’t pay. We will let you know if more space becomes available.

Our Winter CSA runs every other week from December through mid-April. We offer an assortment of the sweetest greens you’ve had, paired with a wide array of storage crops. Our greens are grown in unheated tunnels and our storage crops are harvested as late into the fall as possible and held fresh in our coolers until the spring.

  • For $40, each week you’ll get about 4 bags or bunches of greens and 10 pounds of various storage crops. You will choose from our selection, however please note that there are more limits in winter than summer for obvious reasons.

    • Pay in 1 or 2 installments. $440 at signup for 1 installment or $220 at signup and $220 by December 31 for 2 installments. SNAP payments accepted.

  • Our Winter CSA runs for 11 weeks. Pickup is every other Saturday from 9am - 2pm starting on December 2, 2023 and ending on April 20, 2024.

  • You can select to shop market-style at pickup or you can pre-order online and have a bag waiting. Pre-bag members pay an extra $10 for the season

  • On the CSA distribution days we also will bring in other tasty local items like eggs, meat, fresh bread, and pastries, along with our homemade frozen soups, pestos, and jams which can be purchased day of. To reserve eggs for all 11 weeks you can purchase an egg share here.

Members agree to the following:

  • I will make my best effort to be at each scheduled distribution. If I cannot attend a distribution I will either arrange for someone to pickup my share, ask the farmers to bag my share for later pickup in the fridge, or take extra another week to make up for it. Bags can be picked up anytime the following week.

  • I will follow the on farm guidelines communicated before the first pickup and read necessary instructions.

  • I understand that this completed online form and mailed/delivered payment are proof of my agreement to join Tributary Farm’s Winter CSA for the 2023/2024 season. Through this partnership, I promise to support the farm through payments on or before the scheduled dates, and in return I will have my share in the weekly harvest.
