Description

2023 Winter season share runs weekly on Tuesdays, November 14, 2023 to February 13, 2024 for a total of 12 weeks. Note: this year there will be no share pick up 12/26 and 1/2.

Winter share is farm pick-up, market-style only.

Our winter share is similar to our main season share where we display a variety of storage crops and fresh greens each week (lettuce mix, salad mix, kale, Asian greens, arugula, spinach, micro greens, carrots, salad turnips, roasting turnips, winter squash, potatoes, salad radishes, herbs, onions, garlic, scallions and other winter veggies). Certain meats and occasionally eggs will also be available in the selection.

For market style, we will be displaying the majority of our full produce selection from the farm. Each item will have a number, or points, written on the label and your job is to add up the value getting to around 25 points. It is just fine to go over 25 some weeks and go under other weeks, or pay any overflow when you remember, just balance that out yourself over the course of the share. For instance, if you will be away one week, you can use 10 additional points the previous week and 15 the following to make up the 25 that you missed. Your personal balance week to week is not something we care to keep track of but rather trust you to manage over the season.

Please remember to bring your own bags each week.

*If you are a SNAP beneficiary and would like to pay for your farm share with your EBT card, please select the SNAP option in the dropdown option. EBT payments are due monthly at the start of the share and are eligible for 50% discount through the Virginia Fresh Match Program.

Additional notes

  • This year we are taking a 2-week break from the farm share the weeks of December 26 and January 2. There will be no share pick up on these weeks.
  • Winter weather can be tough! We have several hoophouses from which to protect and pick crops as well as additional beds out in the field under row cover. We’ll do our best to provide a good variety of winter veggies each week but if we get nailed with snow and ice, variety will be limited. If we have to extend or postpone the share, we will.

The winter share has limited availability and typically sells out in advance! Our online farm market for a la carte ordering will also be open daily through the winter.

On-farm pick up is at 2351 Glade Road, Blacksburg Va 24060, available Tuesdays starting at 8 am. Pick up is self-serve and shares will be available for pick up after Tuesday and throughout the week.
