Community Supported Agriculture shares now available

With all this snow and ice it might be fun to think about garden fresh produce for a moment.

We are now accepting registrations for our Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program. Forty shares are available for the 2011 growing season.

Enjoy a variety of seasonal fruits, vegetables, and herbs each week — enough to feed a small family, or a couple of veggie-loving adults.

The cost for a full share is on a sliding scale of $450-$650 for 20 weeks. (This is the equivalent of $22 each week.) Half shares are on a sliding scale of $225-$425. Payment options are available

The program will begin in late May and run through September 2011.

Shareholders can pick up their produce on Wednesday afternoons at White Violet Center for Eco-Justice or at our centrally-located pick-up site at 113 S. 19th St., Terre Haute. Half shares are picked up every other week.

The registration deadline is March 28, but don't wait until then to ensure your spot.

For more information, contact Candace Minster at cminster@spsmw.org or 812-535-2933.

To register, share your name, address, phone number and e-mail address with Candace by phone or e-mail.

Please join us for an information meeting in Room A in the lower level of the Vigo County Public Library 6-7 p.m. on Tuesday, Feb. 15.
