Bulk Purchases For
CSA share members. You must be a

Ideally,fresh from the farm eaten the
day it is picked is the best
way to enjoy Natures’ Way Farm
produce, there are certain times
of the year this is not possible
– in particular winter.So we have to settle for
next best: winter stored NWF produce!Depending on the item, by
either preserving – through
freezing, canning, pickling or
dehydrating – or through
storing at the correct
temperatures and humidity, you
can continue to enjoy locally
grown, chemical-free produce
well into the winter months. Granted, nutritional value diminishes slightly when your FRESH
NWF food is frozen, canned
etc. at it peak. The
nutritional value of old
food is also diminished when
not harvested at peek ripeness
and may be days or weeks old, it
has lost a lot of what it
had. However a larger
factor to consider is all the
costs, ...for labor,
transportation, etc. all of your
money stays in the local economy
and supports local jobs, summer
youth employment (environmental
educational valued work),
community programs and events.
Though
we strive to fulfill all orders
we don’t control the weather
and at times can run short.By ordering in advance,
you receive priority over
in-season bulk purchases for the
items you order.To provide the best and
fairest service to customers we now
require 50% of the order down
with advance bulk orders; the balance of
the order payment is due when you receive
your produce. If you do
not pick up your bulk orders as
scheduled, we will attempt to
contact you. The
produce will be set out for sale
if not picked up as
scheduled. If crops are
available you may be able to
reschedule, subject to
availability of crops.
