Picked Tuesday. On your step Wednesday.

A twelve-acre holding and a delivery round that stops where the van runs out. No warehouse in between.

THE HOLDING

Twelve acres, and the honest arithmetic

We are not certified organic and do not claim to be — the paperwork costs more than the holding makes. Nothing sprayed, and you are welcome to walk the fields and check.
  • No sprays, ever, on anything we sell
  • Compost from the same four fields
  • Everything picked within a day of delivery

The round

Wednesdays, north of the river. Thursdays, south. Text the day before if you are out.

Pausing

Any week, no notice.

The boxes

Leave last week’s out and we swap it. We have never bought a new one.

The growing year

Weather decides the exact weeks. We would rather say that than print a calendar we cannot keep.
