Fitzgerald's Family Farm 2011 Summer Share Program


 2011 Summer Share Program 

Shareholders may purchase large shares (feeds 4-5 people), small shares (feeds 2-3 people) or an individual share for the 18-week season that begins in mid-June and ends in late October. 

Currently we project that the summer share program will begin the week of June 14th. Shareholders pick up 6 to 10 vegetables weekly depending on what’s in season. On Fridays, you will come to the farm between 12:00 pm and 6:00 pm to pick up your share of vegetables or to the Coudersport Farmer’s Market between 9:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m. (according to our agreement).  In late May 2011, you will be notified of the exact starting date for the season and agree to your pick up day. Any share that is not picked up on the designated day during distribution hours (12:00 pm to 6:00 pm) will be donated to a participating local food pantries unless you make prior arrangements with us. 

Shares may contain the following items: beans, beets, broccoli, cabbage, Chinese cabbage, carrots, celery, corn, cucumbers, eggplant, garlic, decorative gourds, Asian greens, kale, green and red lettuce, melons, onions, peas, peppers (sweet and hot), potatoes, pumpkins, radishes, spinach, summer squash, winter squash, Swiss chard, tomatoes (heirloom, hybrid, paste, cherry), turnips, zucchini, herbs (basil, dill, parsley, sage, chives), farm-fresh eggs, local maple syrup, local honey, homemade jams and jellies, home-canned vegetables, and fresh cut flowers.
