Have you seen what you like? If so, you can obtain one of the CSA Shares right on this page with the drop down menus and the PayPal "Add To Cart" buttons below.
Please rember that shares delivered to, or picked up in Chicago require a 2.25% tax.
We offer two ways to obtain your CSA share - pick up and delivery. Our pick up location for the 2012 season is on Saturdays at the Southport Farmers Market in the parking lot of Blaine School, 1420 W. Grace Street Chicago, IL. It runs June 23rd through October 6th, from 8 am until 1 pm (as of 1/5/12, the Southport Farmers Market has not updated their website to include the 2012 dates/times). Also, our season is longer than the farmers market (6/2 - 10/27) so we will be in the pay lot just north of the Blaine school play lot on Saturdays when the market isn't open.
