Fruit Share
The fruit share is an additional pre-paid share that provides fresh organic or
ecologically grown fruit in season. The 2008 fruit share price is $150. Hawthorne Valley
Farm provides the fruit in partnership with several other area farms.
If you purchase a fruit share, you will receive a selection of fruit as it ripens. In the
past, CSA members who purchased a fruit share received strawberries, blueberries, stoned
fruit (nectarines and/or peaches, plums), pears, and apples.
Because members receive fruit as it ripens, you will not necessarily receive fruit each
week. If shortfalls occur in one fruit variety, fruit from one of the other participating farms
may be substituted. Typically, delivery begins with strawberries in June and ends with
apples in the fall.
