Newton Community Farm 2013 CSA Enrollment Process

In 2013,  our CSA will reflect NCF’s successful efforts with season extension.  We are pleased to announce our 2013 CSA will run for 24 weeks from June through mid-November.   This gives sharers two more weeks to enjoy fresh, locally-grown produce!  The $600 per season price for a weekly share reflects a modest increase of $30 to correspond with the increased number of weeks for the CSA.  The season price for alternate week shares is $325.  All applicants must be a Friend of the Farm (FOF) to be considered in the process.   


See NCF's website for more information about the program structure, work commitment, produce, FOF program, and CSA policy. Key dates include:


Application available on website – January 20
