SUBSCRIPTION CSA
In 2009, we will have a Subscription CSA in addition to our sales through the Farmers Market,
Tomato Tomato, and the
Nebraska Food Cooperative. Subscribers will receive a subscription of farm
fresh produce each week for twelve weeks beginning in May. The assortment of produce will vary throughout the season and will
contain a wide variety ranging from gourmet salad mixes to tomatoes, new
potatoes to green onions, peas to green beans, cucumbers to spinach, and squash to
peppers. Our subscribers will be our
priority customers, and we will endeavor to provide them with the "first pick"
from our gardens, giving them the best we have to offer.
Subscribers may purchase a subscription for
$25.00 per week. The full subscription fee of $300.00 can be paid upon
registration, or subscribers can make a non-refundable $100.00 deposit at
registration, with the remaining balance due by May 1, 2009. An all natural,
free range chicken egg subscription of a dozen eggs per week for twelve weeks
may be purchased for an additional $4.00 per week. Again, payment is due by May
1st. These are Large, Grade A, Candled Eggs. They are beautifully colored (blue,
green, tan, brown etc.) Araucana/Americana and Plymouth Rock chicken eggs with bright yellow yolks and
firm whites. Delicious!
Subscribers may pick up their produce
on Saturday, between 8:00 AM & Noon, during the twelve week subscription season
at the
Village Pointe Farmers Market (168th & West Dodge Road). For more information,

PUREBRED BERKSHIRE FEEDER PIGS FOR SALE
We currently have purebred Berkshire
feeder pigs, out of registered purebred breeding stock, for sale. Berkshires
are a heritage breed of swine that produce gourmet pork. The meat is marbled
like beef, and is the finest tasting pork there is! Our feeder pigs are
pre-conditioned (castrated and wolf teeth clipped) and can be vaccinated at
your request. These pigs were farrowed
and raised outdoors in portable huts. They are hardy and do very well in hot or cold
weather with simple housing. Availability is limited. For more information call or e-mail us.
