Fall Veggie CSA Shares

The Fall Share is an extension of our main-season Veggie CSA program. It’s also a great option for prospective members to try out the CSA program for just a few weeks.

Start Date & DURATION

The 2025 Fall Share will run for 6 weeks, Oct 13-Nov 23.

What's in it? 

Veggies look a lot like the end of the "regular" CSA: many greens, turnips, radishes, potatoes, winter squashes, garlic, peppers, eggplant, okra, sweet potatoes… and possibly some additional items later on, like kohlrabi, cabbage, carrots, & beets.

Half-share members will receive 6 items, and Full-share members 10 items, each week in their share. In general, members will get to choose all items, but it may be that the first 3 items are "Farmer's Choice," just like the summer share.

FALL SHARE Pickups

Below are the anticipated Fall Share pick up locations, but they are subject to change (some locations change hours or close for the season). Note, you can also pre-order additional items (like beef. pork, eggs, dairy products & grocery items) to your pick up. Preorder by noon Monday for Wed pick up OR by noon on Thursday for Fri-Sun pick up.

Fall Add-on Shares

We are offer a few of our most popular add-on shares during the Fall. These will run for the same duration as the Veggie shares and must be picked up at your default location (unless you contact us).

  • Cheese Share - 1 soft chevre from Caromont Farm and 1 hard cheese from Shenandoah Valley Family Farms/Virginia Fresh (cheddars, colby, swiss, etc.)

  • Mushroom Share - choose 1/2 lb or 1 lb per week; farmer’s choice mixed mushrooms from Schofield Farm

  • Fruit Share - seasonal tree fruits from our local/regional partners: apples, pears, Asian pears, and occasionally specialty items as they become available.

Off-Season Egg, Milk & Yogurt Shares are also available! These run for the entire ‘off-season,’ 28 weeks from Oct to May (right before the next Summer season starts.)

Other perks: farm access and discounts! 

Current-year CSA members (any veggie OR add-on share) get 20% off vegetables and 10% off eggs. These discounts are in effect for the calendar year during which you are a member. Members are also welcome to enjoy the farm, whether that be through pick-your-own, walking, picnicking and more.

FAQs

What if I go on vacation during the Fall share? You can send a friend or family member to pick up in your place. Due to the more limited selection of Fall produce and the shortness of the Fall share, we cannot accommodate double ups.

Can I access the Pick-Your-Own? Yes, PYO is available to Fall members until frost.
