What is a CSA?
CSA is short for "Community Supported Agriculture." In the 1960s, Booker T. Whatley, a black horticulturalist and agriculture professor in Alabama, introduced the concept as a method of garnering community financial support for black farmers, who were being denied loans and federal aid available to white farmers.
This model was adopted widely by small farms all over the country, and remains one of the best ways you can support your farmers while eating seasonal, local, ultra fresh produce. Think of it as your own private veggie club - you purchase a CSA share, then all season long you'll receive a weekly box of veggies from the farm harvested and packed just for you.
Hurry Home Farm has two CSA seasons throughout the year, which reflects our local Central Texas growing climate. The selection of veggies each week depends on what's in season on the farm, and your share is freshly harvested the day you pick it up. Once in awhile your box might have special items from other local farms, such as mushrooms, potatoes, and more. You can choose from two different pickup days a week.
Our CSA is a little different from other farms' models. We sell what we call "mini shares." Mini shares are a little smaller (and less expensive!) than the average CSA, which we have found can be a lot more manageable than a full size share. We pack 4-5 items for you in each weekly share. If your household has a lot of veggie eaters, you might consider purchasing 2 shares for a total of 8-10 items per week.
A CSA is a great fit for folks who love to cook at home, are adventurous and excited to try new or unusual veggies, and are willing to plan meals around what's in season.
Fall CSA
Our Fall season CSA runs for 10 weeks, from mid October to just before Christmas.
The season starts with a summery mix of crops - think peppers, summer squash, eggplant, okra, beans, cherry tomatoes, basil, and more. As the weather cools off, you'll start to see leafy greens, broccolini, salad mix, chicories, cauliflower, and all the root vegetables you could hope for.
Spring CSA
Our Spring CSA runs for 14 weeks, from April through June.
Spring is a little bit like fall in reverse...you'll begin the season with cool weather crops like peas, root veggies, tender herbs, scallions, and many greens/salad options. Once it heats up, spring quickly turns to summer with heat loving crops like squash, tomatoes, beans, melon, etc.
FAQ
How much does it cost?
$25/week, which is $250 for a Fall share, and $350 for a Spring share. Each weekly share has 4-5 items. You are welcome to break up the cost of a season into 2-3 payments if desired, just let us know!
Can I pick out what is in my weekly box?
Nope! It will vary based on what's in season and what we are growing. If you'd prefer to select your own veggies, consider shopping with us at market or at our farm stand.
How do I get my box every week?
Pickup is at the farm from 3-6pm, less than 10 minutes from downtown Wimberley. You can choose either Wednesday or Friday pickup.
Do you have reduced-cost shares available?

What if I don't like a veggie in my box?
It happens :) if you need some fresh inspiration for how to prepare something don't hesitate to reach out. Otherwise, consider giving it to a friend who might want it!
What if I am out of town for pickup?
If you travel often or will be out of town for a large portion of the CSA season, a CSA share might not be the right fit for you. If you're going to be gone for just one or two weeks, we can help you arrange something (or, you're always welcome to let a friend pick up your box!)
