The Vegetable Share
Receive a generous variety of produce, delivered
weekly to several locations in the Nevada City/
Grass Valley area, San Juan Ridge, and Truckee.
Each week’s delivery yields its own unique harvest,
picked fresh that day. You will sample over
150 varieties of vegetables and herbs. You can
expect plenty of those favorite staple veggies, plus
a healthy portion of the exotic and unusual. We
put tremendous care and skill into growing superb
produce for you. Quantity and variety progress
with the season. Our weekly newsletter provides
recipes, nutritional information, and farm news.
Also, a new monthly email newsletter will include
pictures and more in-depth articles. Summer 2008 Brochure & Sign Up Form

Standard Vegetable Share
(Mon. May 26/Thurs. May 29 to Mon. Nov. 3/Thurs.
Nov. 6) Most members receive the standard share,
which averages $20 per week ($23/week to Truckee)
(about a grocery bag full of produce). As the season
progresses and crops mature, the amount and variety of
produce increases. The standard share is pre-boxed for
your convenience. Our luscious melons are included in
the vegetable shares.
Large Vegetable Share
(same dates as standard share)
The large share provides a generous variety of vegetables
for a family of 4 or a couple of serious veggie eaters and
averages $37 per week ($39/week to Truckee) (two full
grocery bags).
Vegetable Free Choice Area
All Standard and Large veggie share members have access
to the vegetable free choice areas at the pickup sites.
The free choices boxes will have additional amounts of
items in your shares or other veggies that appeal more
to some than to others (for example, arugula and hot
peppers). You may help yourself to as much as you want
from these boxes.
