2012 Summer CSA

2012 Lake Breeze Organics Summer CSA shares are now available.

We invite you to join us for our fifth year of Community Supported Agriculture.  Our certified organic CSA share is comprised of a wide variety of both specialty vegetables and fruits. In your weekly box you can expect a mix of seasonal produce from the farm. We specialize in hard to find heirlooms that are chosen for their culinary and medicinal qualities. From beginning to end you can expect quality produce. Our shares feature a long list of specialty greens, heirloom tomatoes, numerous European heirloom vegetables, fruit, herbs, and much more. All of our greens are perfectly washed in pure cold glacial water keeping them fresher longer. We also have a state of the art salad greens dryer that will keep greens fresh twice as long.

Here are a few examples of boxes that we provided last season. There are usually between 7 and 10 different items each week.

Week  1 – Asparagus, strawberries, garlic, basil, mustard greens, Italian spinach, redbor kale, and radishes, greens mix

Week  5 – Rhubarb, pie cherries, sugar snap peas, basil, heirloom patty pans, round zucchini, red candy onions, red Russian kale, lettuce

Week 9 – Gourmet mixed eggplants, Marconi peppers, patty pans, Indian cucumbers, cippolini onions, softneck garlic, heirloom cherry tomato mix, blueberries, and potatoes

Week 15 – Apples, tromboncino zucchini, cucumbers, dragon tongue beans, eggplants, arugula, greens mix, copra onions, mixed potatoes, heirloom tomatoes

For no extra charge Lake Breeze Organics includes fruit such as blueberries, strawberries, apples, Asian pears, cherries, and more.  

We remain a low priced certified organic CSA so that everyone can afford to purchase a share of quality local organic produce.  Each week members will receive an email with a description of the weekly package and recommended recipes.  All of our recipes both from the past and present are permanently archived on our website.
