Schreiber & Sons Community Supported Agriculture began giving Tri-Cities families a chance to share in local farming in 2006. For a fee, CSA members receive a box of seasonal produce every week during the 28 week harvest season, which stretches from May through November. We offer small, medium and large shares. You will receive newsletters via email that may include nutritional information, recipes and serving suggestions for featured items, your family will become part of a local community that appreciates fresh produce and values agriculture.

 

 

 

PLANT YOUR DOLLARS LOCALLY
Enjoy you own personal farmer

• We have increased our fruit varities this year to include raspberries, blackberries, bluberries, apples, pears and grapes!
• We have expanded our drop sites to include 2 Kennewick Sites, 2 Pasco sites,a PNNL/Battel site, a Prosser site, and possibly an Othello site!
• We are offering a "choice option" members can design their own boxes by adding and omiting produce each week for an additional $80
• We are no longer offering organic or conventional, there will be one share that is 85% organic. (We can accomodate members if they want strictly organic items)
• Boxes will be labeled with your name, to minimize confusion upon pickup!
• We offer special add on items such as natural fed beef, artesian local bread and local free-range eggs!
• We have implemented a new online system, including a web store. Members can more effectivly sign up, manage their account, purchase surplus and add on items and much more!
• You will receive deliveries of local produce weekly.
• You will pay for flavor, freshness and quality—rather than transportation. (The average item of produce in a grocery store travels over 1,000 miles.)
• You will embark upon a culinary adventure and try things you didn’t realize existed.  Of the thousands of varieties of produce, the average household may consume 25, at most, during the year. We will provide you with top quality, conventional favorites, while introducing you to fruits, vegetables and nutritional gold mines that may never have entered your kitchen before.
• We want you to know your farmer and see your produce grow. At least two parties are organized each year for members to visit the farm, meet other members, and share recipes. Additional farm visits can be arranged with previous notice.

Joining a CSA is healthy, interesting and easy.

Become a LOCAVORE– someone who tries to eat as much locally grown food as possible.

 

Additional produce is sold when available, we also offer add on items such as bread, free range beef, eggs and chicken.

• Registration is on a first-come-first-serve basis.
• Price is based on an estimated 28 week season: May 1-November 15.. Mother Nature may lengthen or shorten this period.
• We ask our members to pay at least half of their membership by our first delivery. The remainder is due by July 1st.
• Registration can be completed by mail or on our Website. Payments can be made by check or Paypal (via our Website).
• Memberships must be paid in full by July 1, 2012. No refunds will be given after July 1, 2012.

95% of all produce in CSA deliveries is grown on our farm north of Pasco. The rest is sourced from other local farmers.

In the past, we have offered both organic and conventional shares. We found this to be costly and inefficient. Therefore, in 2011, we will not be offering conventional or organic; just a share. Shares will be about 85% organic produce. If a member wishes to receive only organic produce, we will accommodate that wish, but diversity of box content will be reduced.

We reserve the right to make substitutions based on our produce availabiity. Farming is not always predictable!

 

 

We offer additional produce, and you will be notified when surplus produce is available for purchase. In addtion we feature a varitey of Add on items that can be purchased one time, or regularly with your weekly delivery. We currently have Locally baked bread, free range eggs, chicken and beef available for purchase.
