For the past two years, we've conducted surveys of our CSA membership,
and generally the feedback has been extremely positive. That is why we
will continue to offer our full and biweekly shares without substantial changes in 2014. (Information on those shares can be found
on our website.)
Of
concern to us, though, was feedback from folks who tell us they have
been overwhelmed by the quantity of food they receive in their full or
biweekly shares. Some have small families; others have limited time for
food preparation.
In response to that feedback, we are offering a
new share: The Grab & Go Share. Here's how it differs from our
full and half shares:
- Pick up is every week (18-20 weeks) on Tuesdays.
-
Smaller size: 6-10 items per week, with an emphasis on the more
commonly used crops. This makes it a good size for couples, singles and
people who are busy.
- Prepacked for convenience: It will be ready
for you to take home in a collapsible, reusable container. Just pick it
up, take it home, and return the container the following week.
-
Choose pickup at one of three locations: Wickham Farms; the UPS Store
at 300 Hylan Drive in Henrietta (across from Marketplace Mall); the UPS Store at 106 Cobblestone Court in Victor
(across from Eastview Mall).
- The price is $395 for the 18-20 week growing season.
- U-pick flowers, herbs and bonus crops are not included, but you may add it for $125 for the entire season.
This
share is also available for delivery to businesses or to a central area
in a neighborhood.
If you would like for Bill Wickham to speak to your business
or neighborhood group regarding this share, please email us at office@wickhamfarms.com.
