CSA Explained
Interested in a regular delivery of sustainable meat? By now most people are familiar with the CSA model for vegetables, but few meat CSAs exist. We’ve partnered with Autumn’s Harvest farm to offer a simple, affordable meat CSA to Manhattan and Brooklyn.
The scoop:
--The CSA operates quarterly. Check out the CSA FAQs for a list of the delivery dates this quarter; if it's midway through a quarter and you want to join, email us and we'll get you set up with a prorated share!
--Delivery is every other Thursday.
--Members can choose a pork share, beef share, and/or pork/beef combo share.
--Each delivery is 5lbs. total of meat, divided into different cuts (click here for an example list of what you might find in a share over a 14 week quarter).
--In addition to the basic share, you can add a chicken share (1/2 chicken each delivery) or an egg share (one dozen eggs each delivery), and order from our buyer's club at a 10% discount.
--The pricing works out to $10/pound of meat -- a much better deal for premium product than you can find at a farmers market or grocery store.
Our animals are raised with common sense: humanely and antibiotic/hormone free. The beef is all grassfed and the pigs' foraging is supplemented with our own custom mix of veggies, corn, oats, and soy.
Ordering is done through this, our online store. You pay upfront for each quarter and can add anything from the buyer's club as you go along.
