Time to Order Winter Shares

A friend recently asked me for recommendations for winter shares. This interests me, too, because our CSA, Brookfield Farm, will not deliver its winter shares from Amherst. Here's what I came up with. Be aware that I'm biased towards CSAs that deliver to the Arlington/Cambridge/Somerville area.

  1. Drumlin Farm - requires that you spend 10 hours working on the farm, which is kind of cool. No word on pickup location, but Lincoln isn't very far from Cambridge.
  2. Enterprise Farm - has an autumn share that just started yesterday and a year-round share - pickup at Kick*ss Cupcakes in Davis Sq. Wed. 2-7. They also offer home delivery.
  3. The Food Project - pickup in Lincoln for Nov. and Dec. only.
  4. Heaven's Harvest Farm - Another fall share until just before Thanksgiving, pick up at Cambridge Harvest Coop.
  5. Red Fire Farm - has a winter share and delivers to Cambridge and Somerville for a small fee. May be sold out.
  6. Stone Soup Farm - has a Nov-Dec winter share, pickup at Democracy Center in Cambridge.
