New CSA: Moonfire Farms -- starting Sept. '09!

Our Community Shared Agriculture (CSA) with TapRoot Farms has gone so well that we are adding a second CSA farm to our roster: please welcome Moonfire Farms from Lower Burlington in the Annapolis Valley, Nova Scotia. They specialize in organic and heirloom vegetables, but will be sourcing additional produce from other area farms, and offering $20 shares for 13 weeks, starting this September. A $3 delivery fee applies to baskets picked up in Halifax, so the total cost per share will be $299. Space is limited, so sign up while you still can!
Pickup day will be Wednesdays, 4:00-6:30PM at the Grainery Food Co-op, 2385 Agricola St.
