Buying from this farm

CSA / shareLocal deliveryFarmers marketFarm pickup
How you get it
Structured as a cooperative CSA: yearly share purchase with monthly delivery or pickup; also sold as bulk shares (beef in 1/16 shares, ~25 lb). Historically worked a Farmers Market ('working the Farmers Market') but none is currently named as active. Just as with a CSA you purchase a yearly share containing a variety of meats and cuts... buy different cuts when you need and want, and get monthly delivery or pickup.
Ordering
Phone Ross Hackerson at (413) 210-3739, or email [email protected]; no online store found. CSA participation requires contacting Ross, potentially joining a steering committee per a linked PDF.
