CSA Pick-Up Locations
Your share of the Artisan Organics
Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) harvest
will be delivered to one of two sites in Portland.
Please see Pick-up Sites
for specific information regarding the locations,
dates and times of our deliveries. When you
complete your Registration
form, please indicate which location is
the most convenient for you.
Each CSA Pick-Up location is BYOB…Bring
Your Own BAG!
The site will be organized much like a
booth at a Farmers Market. You will find bins
of vegetables arrayed on a table. Each bin will
have a sign indicating the quantity of that
item you are to choose. For example, the sign
may indicate you are two take two heads of lettuce,
three ears of corn, or a bunch of arugula.
The last bin on the table
is the Exchange Bin. If there is a vegetable
in your share that you just can’t convince
your household to eat, place it in the Exchange
Bin. Often you’ll find that your least
favorites are some one else’s “must
haves.” You are welcome to take anything
you like from the Exchange Bin.
As you load your bags, you’ll
have the opportunity to visit with your farmer
and the other members of the Artisan Organics
community. This is a great time to swap recipes
and tips for freezing your excess produce.
Note: If
your vegetables will be left sitting in a hot
vehicle you may wish to bring a cooler and a
re-usable ice pack. Consider leaving the cooler
in your car all summer so that you don’t
forget it!
