The Lemon Street Market CSA is open now through May 30th (or until we hit our 30 participant limit)! There are two options you can sign up for:
- Full Share CSA – 17 weeks of fresh, local food for $500
- Half Share CSA – 8 weeks of fresh, local food for $250 (a box every other week)
We work with a number of local farms and growers who frequently have an abundance of Lancaster and York counties’ finest fruits and vegetables. Our CSA farmers include (but are not limited to): Horn Farm Center, Hellam; Ruth Lapp, New Providence; Alex Wenger, Lititz; Amy Yocom, Millersville; Michael Dietz, York; 5th Month Farm, Mount Joy; Paradise Organics, Paradise; Eagle Road Produce, Quarryville; and Dietz Produce, York.
Pick-up will be every Thursday from 7 AM-7 PM starting June 4 for both full and half shares.
How much produce will I receive?
Each week, you will receive 8-10 items. This includes seasonal produce, salad fixings, onions or garlic, culinary herbs, and seasonal fruits or berries.
What if I don’t like an item in my CSA produce share?
We will provide a swap box for CSA members to swap one item for a different item if desired. Swap box instructions will be further explained in your welcome packet, first newsletter, and at pickup.
What if I’m going out of town?
Full Share CSA members are eligible for two “skip weeks” to use during the season in lieu of picking up their box. Let us know in advance and we will prepare a $25 store gift card. Half Share CSA members are eligible for one skip week.
Is the produce organic?
All items in your box will be local, chemical free (“organic methods”), and non-GMO.
When does the season start and how long will it run?
Full and Half Share CSAs start on Thursday, June 4. Full Shares run every week through September 24 for a total of 17 weeks. Half Shares run every other week June 4 – September 10 for a total of 8 weeks.
Has my produce been washed before I receive it?
All produce is field washed to remove soil, but you should wash your produce before it is prepared.
How long will my produce stay fresh?
Storage and handling is key to freshness. All produce is best eaten fresh or frozen as soon as possible. Tips will be provided to give you a 7-10 day window to consume your weekly share.
