Frequently Asked Questions — CSA

-
Each week, you’ll receive a full, diverse share of fresh, seasonal produce harvested from the market garden.
As the season progresses, the contents of your share will evolve. Early-season greens give way to summer crops like tomatoes and cucumbers, followed by late-season peppers and other warm-weather vegetables.
-
No — and that’s part of the experience. Our CSA follows the natural rhythm of the growing season, so your share will change week to week based on what’s fresh and abundant.
-
Full Share: Best for families or those who cook regularly. Full shares have a weekly value of approximately $37.50.
Half Share: Ideal for individuals or smaller households. Half shares have a weekly value of approximately $22.50.
Both options are designed to provide a meaningful amount of fresh produce each week without excess waste.
-
The 2026 CSA runs for 16 weeks during the peak growing season.
We’ve intentionally designed a shorter season to focus on the most productive part of the year — allowing for more abundant, higher-quality shares each week.
2026 Summer Season Runs:
Saturday, June 20th - Saturday, October 3rd — 16 Weeks
-
All shares are pickup only this season.
Pickup will take place weekly in Haslett, Michigan. Specific times & location will be shared with CSA members before the season begins.
-
If you’re unable to make a pickup, you can:
Have a friend or family member pick up your share
Let us know in advance when possible. We try to accomodate the occasional schedule conflict.
Unclaimed shares may be forfeited, as we harvest fresh each week and have limited storage capacity.
-

Frequently Asked Questions — Consulting
-
I work with individuals, schools, and organizations to design and build practical garden and food systems. This can include home gardens, school gardens, community spaces, businesses and programs focused on food access or agricultural education.
-
Every project is a different, but most start with a conversation about your space, goals, and capacity. From there, I help with layout planning, crop selection, systems design, and ongoing guidance as things develop.
-
Both. I can work with you in person if you’re local, or provide virtual support through calls, photos, and shared plans.
-
Not at all. Some people are starting from scratch, while others already have a garden or program and just need help improving or simplifying it.
-
Yes. I support schools and organizations with garden design, program planning, and systems that can realistically be maintained over time—not just installation.
In addition to farming, I am a career educator and currently teach kindergarten. I especially enjoy partnering with schools, students, and fellow educators.
-
My focus is on building systems that are manageable, sustainable, and actually used. That means keeping things practical, avoiding overcomplication, and designing around the people who will be maintaining the space.
My urban farm was formerly a backyard of merely grass, in the middle the city. I specialize in maximizing the growing potential in any space, even indoors.
-
I work across a range of growing methods, depending on your space, goals, and how much time you realistically have to maintain it.
This includes:
Foundational garden systems
In-ground gardens and traditional row growing
Raised beds and garden boxes
Container gardening for patios, porches, or small spaces
Small-space, indoor, and year-round growing
Indoor growing (including hydroponics and microgreens)
Greenhouses and hoop houses for season extension
Rooftop and urban growing setups
Ecological and integrated systems
Food forests and permaculture-based designs
Herb and sensory gardens
Fruit orchards
Aquaponic (fish-fed) systems
Fodder and forage systems for small-scale livestock like chickens and goats
Production and program-based growing
Market garden design and small-scale farm systems
Growing for restaurants, cafeterias, and culinary programs
Organic and low-input growing approaches
I also help solve common challenges like limited space, poor soil, inconsistent yields, seasonal gaps, and systems that feel overwhelming or hard to maintain.
The goal is always the same: to build a productive system that fits your space and actually works for your day-to-day life.
Not sure which approach fits your space? We can figure that out together.

Get in touch via the ▶️CONTACT FORM◀️, and share as much—or as little—as you have in mind. Some people come with a clear plan, while others are just getting started.
From there, we’ll set up a short discovery call to talk through your space, goals, and any questions you have. It’s a chance to get clarity, explore what’s possible, and see if working together makes sense.
