Live Power Offerings

Season: The season runs from the first week in May to the last week in November. We hope people can join us for the entire season, but if there is space, signups are accepted throughout the season.

Share Size: The garden share is based on a half bushel basket which will feed a family of 2 to 3, depending on eating habits. Individuals are welcome to share with another person. The vegetable share will provide a seasonal variety of produce each week from the beginning of May until Thanksgiving week.
Below is a table showing the schedule and quantities planned for the garden share.

Of course, each season is different. For example this is 2012’s Garden Share Harvest Totals.

Seasonal Variation:

The farmers will harvest what is ready at each season. Early spring baskets are usually smaller with mostly greens and early roots, then peas and broccoli, then increasing in quantity and variety with corn, squash, tomatoes, melons, potatoes, roots and greens as peak summer harvest is reached in August and September. Fall harvests are also bountiful with roots, storage crops, cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, leeks and greens. The baskets will increase in quantity and variety as the weather warms and more types of vegetables are ripe.
