COLLECTING YOUR SHARE
Reusable Bags/Baskets — In previous years, we provided baskets and bags to CSA Members. However, we found that Members often forgot to return these to us to refill to each.  This year, we ask CSA Members to provide their own reusable bags or baskets.  So, CSABucks Members should bring their own bags or baskets with them to collect their produce at our on-farm store at Fair Oaks.   Traditional CSA members should leave two reusable produce bags/baskets with their names clearly marked on them at their designated drop site.  We will fill your bag/basket each week when we deliver your share to the drop site.  We ask you to leave two, empty, reusable marked bags/baskets so you rotate using them on a weekly basis, leaving your empty bag at the pickup site while collecting your full bag or basket of produce.

CSA Member Information on East Lynn Farm Website
We want to remind you that each week prior to receiving your weekly share, we will be posting share information on our website at eastlynnfarm.wpengine.com under the “CSA Member Information” section.  The information will include what will be in that week’s share, useful and delicious recipes for cooking that week’s produce and any other information relating to farm events.  Please remember to check the website on a regular basis.  We will also email you this information each week at the email address you have provided to us.
Looking forward to seeing you in June!!
