Our CSA box contains a variety of fresh fruits and vegetables which changes throughout the Summer as the harvest season progresses. We grow many of our own vegetables and work with a couple of other Thurston County farms to fill in on the vegetables we don't grow or have in rotation throughout the season. In addition, we direct source seasonal fruit from small family farms throughout Eastern Washington. An early season box will be a little less diverse and ample than a mid to late-season box.
