Posted on September 16th, 2021 by Lindsey Visser

The weather the past few weeks has been amazing.  We are really starting to move into the fall crops this week!  The fall potato harvest has started.  It is looking like it is going to be a good potato crop this year.  We are so thankful!

Just a reminder that now is the time to sign up for the winter CSA!  Here are a few details, including some location updates:

 - We are switching up the payment plan to try and simplify things.  When you sign up you will pay for the first week's box.  Then starting the second week your card will automatically be charged with each delivery.  Want to pay off the full balance?  No problem, just let me know and I will contact the Harvie team to take care of that for you.  This new payment plan is much easier to understand and will make placing shares on hold much easier.  

- Every week and every other week shares are available.  The program will start the week of October 18 and go thru April.  Signing up for the every other week share?  Make sure to check your start dates! 

- What will be be having available?  The shares will start out will all of your fall favorites like broccoli, brussel sprouts, fall squash, leek, cabbage, cranberries. tons of root veggies, apples and greens that we have growing in the greenhouse.  Then as we move into January and late winter there will be all of the root veggies like potatoes, beets, onions, carrots, parsnips, turnips, celery root & rutabagas.  We will continue to have salad greens, chard, collards, kale & microgreens grown in the greenhouse.  We will also include apples and dry beans. 

 - Pick up locations:

  • Farm - Tuesday (3 - 6pm), Wednesday (9am - 6pm), Thursday (9a - 6pm) & Saturday (9am - 5pm).
  • Muskegon Farmers Market - Saturday, 8am - 12pm.
  • Bronson Hospital (employees only) - Thursday afternoon. 
  • Kalamazoo Winter Market - Still working on this.  Will let you know as soon as they have the details figured out.
