It’s time to sign up for summer veggies from Cal Poly’s Organic Farm.
The Organic Farm is now taking summer subscriptions for its Community Supported Agriculture Program (CSA). Subscribers receive a box of fresh-picked produce weekly. Contents vary depending on what’s ripe and in season.
Summer season crops include lettuce, leafy greens, tomatoes, squash, onions, spinach, beets, carrots, fennel, eggplant, corn, bell peppers, melons, and more.
The summer season begins the week of June 16 and runs through mid-September.
CSA members can choose to receive either a large produce box ($26.50 per week), designed for a family of three to five people, or a small box ($19 per week), designed for one to three people.
For more information contact Leah Bauer at the farm at 756-6139 or orgfarm@calpoly.edu
