4 WEEKS OF ORGANIC VEGGIES
When you sign up, you’ll choose one of our 4-consecutive week CSA Sampler schedules. Be sure you can do all four scheduled weeks in that track. We do not sub out weeks that don’t work for you — we want you to get a true experience of what the CSA is like! Your box is the standard share size, including 6-8 seasonal organic veggies picked fresh from our farm. We also provide you with recipes and storage tips for the week.
ACCESS TO OUR FACEBOOK GROUP
Worried about “wasting your food”? You’ll get access to our private FB community and our online training library, where we post weekly unboxings, video tutorials on every veggie we grow, plus you get access to all our support materials to help you learn how to eat our veggies all season long. Our highly engaged community is great at giving advice and inspiration, and will help you see what being a part of the SLF tribe is all about.
ACCESS TO FARM EVENTS & CONTESTS
You get entry to ALL our Toledo CSAs farm events with your membership. Open House, Pig Roast, Field to Table Dinner events (extra fee), Canning classes, the Chili Cookoff. We also offer lots of fun contests and challenges in our Facebook group ~ you’ll have plenty of chances to meet your farmers and your foodie community.
IT’S LIKE AN “AUDITION”
After 4 consecutive weeks, you should have a good idea if you’d be a good fit for our full season program. It’s a great way to “try out” the program before making the big financial investment next year. Plus, you get all the full-season bonus perks of regular membership like the FB group community, farm events, and foodie training.
MEAL PLANS FOR EVERY WEEK
Getting a box of random veggies can be overwhelming. That’s why we provide you with a dinner game plan each week, including loads of recipes to help you use everything in your box. Plus our weekly “Unboxing video” in our Facebook group will teach you valuable vegetable exit strategies to maximize your box experience.
GUARANTEED MEMBERSHIP FOR 2025
Our full season CSA membership sells out early every year! With a Sampler membership, you’ll get early bird access to 2025 season sign-up in October, ensuring that you get a spot for the new year. (It’s kind of like cutting in line). Many of our Sampler members end up snagging premium share types like egg shares that sell out quickly.
Sign up for the 4-week CSA Sampler.
Choose from one of our 3 four-week Sampler brackets during checkout. Limit: 1 Sampler per season. Be sure the dates works for you when you sign up for your bracket. The Sampler is designed to help you decide if full-time CSA is a good fit. If you already tried it out, then we prefer you just shop week to week from our online store, and save the small number of Sampler spots for people who are auditioning the CSA. Thank you!
