Merry Christmas!

The holidays are fast approaching - consider Goodness Grows for your gift giving needs! As always, we have Jungle Jam, Juicy Jam, and handmade catnip toys for sale. Our homemade apple butter, made with local apples, is still available for purchase. We even have a few of our GG "Create. Cultivate. Thrive." t-shirts left here. We think all those items make great gifts! This year, we're also trying something new. CSA member Niki suggested that folks might want a gift option that's a bit different...like a subscription to our CSA program! We've never considered that before (Thanks, Niki!!) but, with her encouragement, we have our 2023 season info ready to go. Please check it out below.

GG Community Supported Agriculture 2023

Big picture

We have not raised prices in years, but with supply costs inching ever upward, we had to increase our share price slightly for 2023. Our Weekly EARLY BIRD price as well as the Bi-Weekly price only went up by $20. So, that means if a Weekly Share is paid by March 31, it is at the Early Bird price of $300. After March 31, the Weekly Share goes up to $320. The Bi-Weekly Shares will be $160. April 28 is the final day to register and pay. Since we are opening our registration period earlier than ever, we also moved our deadlines back a bit, as you may have noticed.
