All shares are the same size, they only differ in cost and amount of work you're willing to contribute. The cheapest is the "Intensive Workshare" which costs between $75 and 100 and requires something like 40 hours of work (mostly weeding and harvesting). The regular workshare is around $200 and requires around 6-12 hours of work. If you don't want to work at all, a share somewhere around $400. These are just ballpark figures as my memory is a little hazy and Kel handles the financials. For more info, <a href="mailto:vger42@aol.com" rel="nofollow">contact Walter directly</a>.

How was the variety and quality of produce at this farm? Do recall what the smallest share cost? For those of us that want to eat organic foods, a CSA sounds like a cost-effective way to go. Thanks.
