Okay, we have finalized our plans for our fall/winter CSA. We have made a couple changes this year. First of all, we have decided to change the CSA to a simple pre-pay program. Instead of having a fixed number of items each week, members just pre-pay and come to market and pick out the products they want. We will include the same 15% discount for those who join that we have with the regular season CSA. The amount that each member pre-pays will be up to them to decide.
Second, we will plan to have the following market schedule:
Corning Farmers' Market in the Information Center every other Saturday beginning November ? (hmmm...not sure - I need to check if it is Nov. 1 or 8)
Watkins Glen Farmers' Market at St. James Episcopal every other Friday beginning November ? (depends when the Corning Market starts)
Ithaca Farmers' Market every Saturday (on the lake through Christmas and at The Space@Greenstar in January and February)
Here are the crops we plan to have available:
Beets, Brussels Sprouts, Carrots, Celeriac, Fennel, Garlic, Kale, Leeks,
Lettuce, Lettuce Mix, Onions, Parsnips, Potatoes, Radishes,
Rutabegas, Salad Turnips, Spicy Greens Mix, Shallots, Spinach, Swiss
Chard, Winter Squash
The fall/winter CSA will run from November through February as in years past.
