CSA Details

What is a CSA?

CSA stands for Community Supported Agriculture.  Through our CSA, members receive fresh, healthy vegetables on a weekly basis.  We combine our own produce with produce grown on other local organic farms to provide our members with the best quality, quantities, and variety at all times.

USDA Organic Certification

We have worked hard to achieve the USDA Organic Certification, which means the vegetables we provide for your families are 100% sustainably and organically grown, with absolutely no chemicals or pesticides.

Share Sizes

Share sizes range from full shares, which feed a family of four, to half shares, which feed a family of two. Half shares pick-up every other week.

Pick-Up Locations

For your convenience, there are 6 pick-ups to choose from:

  • Mondays - in Thomasville at George and Louie's Restaurant from 1:00 p.m. to 2:30 p.m.
  • Mondays - at the farm after 3:00 p.m.
  • Wednesdays - Lake Ella Growers’ Market from 3:00 p.m. - 6:00 p.m.
  • Wednesdays - at the farm after 3:00 p.m.
  • Saturdays - Tallahassee Market Square from 8:00 a.m. - Noon
  • Saturdays - at the farm after 8:00 a.m.

Pick-ups may be rescheduled with Mary Russ at least 1 week in advance.  In case of a missed pickup, we are unable to swap your pickup location or re-make your bag, but we will always keep your bag in the farm refrigerators for 24 hours following your scheduled pickup, so that you can come out and pick it up at your convenience.

Join Us

To join, go to "Member Sign-up" under the "CSA" tab, and we will contact you a soon as possible with confirmation of your request. We will continue accepting members until our available shares are spoken for.

Cost

Our CSA year runs year round, and is broken down into four payment periods.  Please see schedule below for payment options.  Members have the option of paying for the full year, but are only required to pay for one session at a time.

Payment

After receiving confirmation of your membership, checks should be made out to Orchard Pond Organics and mailed to 500 Orchard Pond Road, Tallahassee, FL 32312. Checks for the current period must be received 2 weeks before the first pickup date to secure your spot.
