Tagge's Famous Fruit CSA Membership 2010
"We are thrilled to provide our customers with the freshest fruits and vegetables, delivered weekly – all grown on our farms."
This is our first year setting up a Community Sponsored Agriculture (CSA) Program and we would love for you to join with us in the adventures of farming.
We want to develop a long lasting relationship with you. We love to farm and in order for us to continue we need the support from the community. This summer will be so fun because you, as a CSA member, will receive the “best of the best” that we grow. You will receive the first fruits and many varieties that we do not sell to anyone else. For example, Thayne will finally be picking the four varieties of white peaches, that he planted four years ago. You will get the first taste of this delicious white flesh peach.
Why we’re so excited to start a CSA program:
- We want to get to know you and we want you to get to know us literally through the fruits of our labor.
- We grow fruit!!! We have many varieties of Cherries (5 varieties), Apricots (6), Brigham City Peaches (28), Plumbs (5), Prunes, Willard Bay Blackberries (3), Raspberries (1) and Apples (4).
- We also have amazing row crops to make your mouth water. They include our famous tomatoes, peas, beans, peppers, cucumbers, beets, cantaloupe, watermelon, sweet salt and pepper corn, summer and winter squash, pumpkins and some of Thayne’s other wonderful veggie surprises.
- And on top of all that, we are very generous. We want you to be our farming friend for many years to come. In addition to providing you with a very impressive box full of fresh fruits and vegetables – since we grow our own, sometimes we have so much picked that we will add the extra in your order.
What Is A CSA?
CSA programs help local farmers by deferring their common early season farming costs. Over the years it’s been proven when both the farmer and the consumer anticipate each season’s harvest together, the overall success of the harvest is greatly increased. The result is more bountiful harvest at a lower cost to the consumer.
Here’s How It Works
As a CSA Share Holder you will receive a specially packed box of fresh fruits and vegetable each week, for 15 weeks. We will start the week of July 4th and continue until the week of October 10th, 2010.
Boxes in July and early August will not have as many varieties of fruits and vegetables due to the Utah growing season, but in August and especially September your membership box will overflow with different varieties of fresh fruits and vegetables grown on our farm.
CSA Share Pricing
Each HALF share membership feeds 2 adults and is $275.00. Depending on the time of the summer you will receive anywhere from 3 to 10 different varieties of fruit and vegetables each week.
For a greater harvest, order a FULL share membership for $545.00. We promise if you order a full share you will have a bountiful supply of Tagge's best produce.
We are limiting the number of shares this year to 200 – so order now. We guarantee your satisfaction!
