Petersen Family Farm

Our Weekly Farm Basket, formerly known as CSA or Community Supported Agriculture, is an opportunity to help support local farming by pre-paying for the upcoming seasons produce. We plan 7-9 different items per week. You pick up a shopping list each week at the farm market. 5 or 6 items will be mandatory and a few items you can choose from to finish out your share.

OUR WEEKLY FARM BASKET PROGRAM IS UNIQUE. HERE’S HOW:

· Pick-up your share at the Farm on either Tuesdays or Saturdays, beginning in early July 2016.

· The fresh produce you receive is in a controlled environment. You also have the opportunity to do shopping for other local produce that might not be in your share.

· Typically 10% of your share is your choice between certain items, mix and match a bit, or opt out of one veggie to get a little extra of something you use more often.

· Our program includes fruit and berries which are sourced from our Utah farming friends.
