Breadbox and Organic Shares – New in 2013!

We listened to you and are going to offer two new share types.  The Breadbox share will have two sizes – small and large.  Organic shares will be available in one size due to the limited supply we have in this area.

Breadbox Share

Small Breadbox Share – small produce share and a locally-made loaf of bread

Large Breadbox Share – large produce share and a locally-made loaf of bread

** Bread will change frequently and we cannot guarantee gluten-free options at this time **
Toggle

 

Organic Share

Organic share will be equivalent to a regular medium share.

** Certified organic and organically-grown only **
