Common Ground farm in full bloom

Here’s your chance to enjoy fresh, organic produce, buy local and make a difference in the lives of those who have the least among us – buy Common Ground farm shares for 2010.

What’s a farm share?

The Common Ground farm produces mixed greens, carrots, radishes, beets, chard, a variety of tomatoes, cucumbers, pumpkins, peppers, beans, potatoes…and much more.  A Common Ground farm share allows you to enjoy 5 – 8 different farm fresh produce  weekly from mid-May through mid-October (possibly longer, depending on growing conditions).

How do shares work?

Each week you get to choose which produce you will take home from whatever is ready to harvest. Our head farmer, Devi Kharel, will be happy to help you with your choices and even give you gardening pointers, if you’re interested. We will pick the produce for you. You choose one of two pick-up days – the weekday option or the weekend option – and pick up your week’s supply at the farm located at 4750 S. Surprise Way in southeast Boise.

Note: If there is enough interest, we may provide an alternative pick-up location for our share-holders’ convenience.

And the cost?

Shares provide 5 – 8 vegetable and herb varieties. Each variety will provide roughly enough for a family-sized meal portion.

Current Share Prices:

$400.00 for a full share (approximately 20 weeks of produce)

$250.00 for a half share (approximately 10 weeks of produce)

Note: There are a limited number of shares available. Shares will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis until we are sold out.

Prices may increase in 2010, so buy now to get your share at the best price.
