We bought a half -share into a farm that exists only for its share holders. It is $200 a year and we’ll bring home boxes of fruit and veggies every week. I’m going to volunteer there too, and they’ve promised to load me up even more. They offer more than 50 kinds of produce.
These kinds of farms exist only for their shareholders. We have a miserable backyard for a garden, though we’re doing some raised beds and container growing. I’ve been growing my own produce from seed and they’re sprouting nicely. But this farm will certainly add to our ability to dehydrate and can produce this growing season. And $200 is a small price to pay.

Never heard of this either and one of the farms I found near me is one where I already occasionally visit the farm stand. The minimum quantities are larger than we need though so we'll probably just stick to going there and picking our own as needed.
