Welcome to the Park Slope CSA
Park Slope CSA is full for the 2011 season.
Our 12th season bringing local, family-farmed produce to Brooklyn begins the week of June 7, 2011.
We offer two options for membership on two different delivery days. You can sign up for a Full Share or an Every Other Week (EOW) Share in either the Tuesday or the Thursday program.
The distribution location is the Garden of Union, a community garden on Union Street between Fourth and Fifth Avenues.

Registration Deadlines
Register by April 20th (after taxes are due) to avoid paying a late fee. Registration closes May 7th, 2011. This gives Farmer Ted plenty of time to grow the right amount of food to deliver to our CSA. Adding stragglers is a drag.
For directions on how to register for the 2011 season, see our join page.
Membership Requirements
To become a member of the Park Slope CSA, you
- Purchase at least one Full or EOW veggie share (including membership fee)
- Sign up for and complete your required workshift(s) at the distribution site
What is a CSA?
Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) means you sign up in advance and the farmer grows food for you. When crops are harvested you come to the Garden of Union to pick up your share during the season. By paying in advance you help Farmer Ted purchase seeds and supplies, and repair or purchase equipment to get started for the new season. If you decide to join us, we encourage you to pay as much as you can up front. If needed, you can pay in three installments --but the share cost must be fully paid and received by the Park Slope CSA prior to the first distribution.
