CSA Programs

2020 options for those who prefer a subscription format

If you’re reading this page, chances are you’re as eager for some fresh vegetables as we are.

What are my CSA options this year?

  1.  Option 1: Sign up for our new Sprout Market Program. Pre-pay for your market veggies and we’ll give you $25 bonus to spend.
  2. Option 2: Sign up for a weekly veggie box through our top notch Snoqualmie Valley Farmers Cooperative (SVFC) CSA box program.
More about the SVFC: The Snoqualmie Valley Farmers Cooperative is a nonprofit organization comprised of more than 25 small, local farms. Their mission is to provide you high-quality produce while supporting valley farms by giving them a fair market value for crops and sales.
 
What this means for you:
  • You get more food diversity (for instance, we can’t grow onions well at Steel Wheel Farm, but our neighboring farms do!) at the same box price
  • You will have access to fruit shares and value add options like mushrooms, eggs and dairy products
  • You will have more options for CSA box pickup locations (there are already 14+ depots across Seattle and the Eastside)
  • You will not have to pay any more , You can support not just one local farm, but the whole local foodshed
  • You can still keep enjoy Steel Wheel Farm directly through our markets, on-site farm stand (and don’t forget Pumpkin Days!)
What this means for farmers: 

SVFC was initiated and built by the Farmers!  This is so we could spend less time on logistics (i.e. the computer work required to set up and manage a CSA program) and more time growing your food. We are passionate about growing the greatest produce for our community of customers and neighboring farmers, and wholeheartedly support the co-op and it’s CSA program.

How to sign up for this year’s CSA

Here’s a link to SVFC’s sign up page  There you will find all the details about delivery dates, locations and prices. Although the program is very similar to what we offered at Steel Wheel Farm, we realize this is still a change to the CSA model that you’re used to. So, if you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to email or call us!

And finally, thank you so much for your support of Steel Wheel Farm over the years, we couldn’t have grown our farm without you!
