It’s about that time again this year…our “Basket of the Week” is now available! We offer a basket of the week, which is our local grown product. It includes what is currently in season, and has veggies and fruit when available. The baskets are the 1/2 bushel with handle size and weigh from 25-30 lbs depending on veggies. The cost is $32 and we add fresh-free range eggs for an additional $3.50. You are not obligated to purchase every week as a CSA ** but they will be available each week.
We have had request for “Single” size for our customers and are going to try and accommodate them as well. We will have a smaller size basket this year, it will be in the peck basket, which is 1/4 bushel. They will be half the price, $16. But believe it or not, the larger basket is about perfect size for a family of 4 (2 adults and 2 children) if you cook nightly.
Please note this picture is just a sample, not what is currently available. They are comprised of the fruits and veggies grown in current season. Example… this weeks’ basket (full size) might have a couple zucchini, yellow squash, new potatoes, cucumbers, kale, Swiss Chard, green onions, radishes, broccoli, cabbage and of course strawberries.
Baskets are available by pre-orders ONLY, via e-mail @ val@russellveggies.com and Face Book Message
