As a member of the eighth season, you will be joining dozens of families from Millburn-Short Hills, Maplewood-South Orange, Summit, Livingston, and the surrounding area in a vibrant community that supports the sustainable farming activities of local farmers.
New this season is Early Bird pricing for all shares with the exception of cider. Prices are listed below in "Shares Offered" section. Early bird contracts must be received by March 1. If you would like to pay for Early Bird for one share but are not ready to commit for another, you can add on after March 1.
The Farm & Fork Society season runs from June 12 through November 20, 2015. Members pick up their shares on Fridays from the Wells Fargo Parking lot located at the corner of Essex Street and Spring Street in downtown Millburn (Behind Bhakti Barn Yoga). Pick up times are from 12 PM to 3 PM.
All members are expected to volunteer 1 or 2 short shifts per season to assist in the distribution of weekly shares. A volunteer sign-up sheet will be coming your way before the season begins.
Each member is required to pay a $25 membership fee to help cover the costs of running the CSA and any supplies that are needed.
