| It's going to be a great year! Why not eat great food? |
Madison County folks! There are a few spots left in our 2015 ESA. What is an ESA, you might ask? Our 'Email Supported Agriculture' concept is a response to the traditional CSA model. We offer a weekly selection of what the farm has via e-mail and then we deliver custom boxes to three locations (Marshall, Mars Hill Market & Hot Springs) Saturday mornings.
Unlike a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture), where you get a large amount of produce every week no matter what, there is no minimum order and you get to choose what you want each time, like you are shopping at a farmer's market.
This year the ESA will be offering:
BERRIES: strawberries, raspberries, blackberries
GREENS: arugula, lettuce, kale, collards, Swiss chard, spicy mesclun mix
MICROGREENS: sweet sunflower, spicy radish and Morgan's Mix
VEGETABLES: beets, carrots, potatoes, sweet potatoes, turnips, brussel sprouts, cucumbers, eggplant, tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, beans, corn, onions, peppers, peas, garlic, scallions, summer & winter squash
ROOT BOTTOM PRODUCTS: garlic butter, pesto, berry jams
FLOWER bouquets
We spray nothing on our crops or our farm. Everything is grown with love.
Not a fennel fan? Don't order it. Going out of town? Don't order. Want to join?
NOW is the time for enrollment, so if you are interested please let us know asap.
If you know anyone who might be interested, please have them contact us at rootbottom@gmail.com by 3/15/14.

The facts: The ESA runs from May - October. Payment is expected weekly upon delivery (cash or check) or you can opt in for the monthly Paypal billing system. There is no minimum to order and if you are out of town, you simply don't have to order. Not a fennel fan, don't order it. We do like folks to be active, but the ESA is designed for folks who don't want a huge box every week. If, at the end of the season, you never ordered we may reassess if it is the right fit for you.
We do a one time yearly $10 joining members fee which covers gas for the season's deliveries and more upcycled bags from thrift stores to eliminate plastic use. This is added to the first order.
