How does a CSA work? We grow 45 to 50 vegetables, fruits, and herbs that we harvest, pack and distribute on a weekly or every other week basis to families that become members of the farm. Members pay in advance with a flexible payment plan for the food they will receive throughout the CSA season.
We also provide a weekly newsletter, delivered via email the morning of delivery that explains the contents of that week’s delivery as well as recipes and storage tips for the produce. Recipes in our newsletters often mirror the contents of the box both in variety and quantity. Members also get a little update on the comings and going at Pinehold. A newsletter archive including the 2010 to 2018 seasons is also available.
Finally, we feel it’s important to strengthen the ties between the farm and farm members by inviting members to the farm Monday through Saturday. We also offer specific opportunities to come together as a group, such as our paste tomato u-picks and harvest festival in the fall. Dates for these events will be noted in the newsletter and also on our Calendar page.

Anarchy Acres Flour CSA program
Our friend Charlie Tennessen has started growing and milling heritage wheat right here in our area. And he’s offering to our CSA members one four pound bag each month of our CSA season (that’s 5 bags) at a cost of $32.50. The flour will be delivered to your dropsite each month with your name on it. The flour share sign up is included on our CSA sign up form. Please send a separate check made out to Anarchy Acres.
Worker Shares
Small scale, sustainable vegetable production is labor intensive, creating a need for dedicated workers. To address this need, we offer a limited number of worker shares. A worker share is the exchange of labor for a CSA membership. Worker shares receive a box of fruits and vegetables and make a significant contribution to the success of Pinehold Gardens. A worker share is a serious commitment of 4 hours per week. The majority of our worker share hours are Tuesday mornings from 9 am to 1 pm, from the last week of June through the first week of November with a week built in for vacation or illness. A worker share commits to a shift and works that shift for the entire season. All shifts are 18 weeks long for a total of 72 hours.
