Frog Hollow Farm
How Our CSA Works Community Supported Agriculture, or CSA, is a way for individuals, families, and businesses to connect directly with a local, small farm. Members of Frog Hollow Farm's CSA pay for a regular subscription (e.g., monthly, quarterly, annually) and in return the farm delivers boxes of fresh fruit every week at an established neighborhood delivery site - often the front porch of a generous neighbor, or a business or school. CSA members pick up their box anytime that afternoon or evening, and sign next to their name on the manifest so we know they've done so. Unless there's a problem, they don't need to ring the host's doorbell, and because members pre-pay directly to the farm, no money changes hands at the pick-up.

CSA "share"-holders enjoy Frog Hollow Farm's legendary fruit all week (if it lasts that long!), experiencing the variations and tasty treats of California's seasons. The term "share" comes from the simple fact that by joining our CSA you are investing in Frog Hollow Farm. The CSA program helps the farm to diversify its customer base, better manage cash flow, and become a more "sustainable" business in the financial sense - in addition to already being sustainable in the organic, fair labor sense. We farm sustainably and organically from our hearts because we believe you only get out of something exactly what you put into it.

What Do Members Get In Their Box Each Week? Frog Hollow Farm's CSA is a year-round, all-fruit CSA featuring the finest cherries, apricots, peaches, nectarines, apples, pears, and citrus. During the winter, Frog Hollow's legendary fruit is supplemented with goodies from the farm kitchen: granola, dried fruit, and olive oil, plus other unique locally-grown food. Each week we e-mail a newsletter to members on their delivery day (also available for download in PDF) so we can share news about upcoming events at the farm and give information on the different varieties of fruit we grow. For more information about the fruits, delivery times and special events, you can also follow us on Twitter at http://twitter.com/FrogHollowCSA.

Where Can I Pick Up My CSA Box? Frog Hollow Farm makes deliveries on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays to over 35 pick-up sites throughout the Bay Area and Central California. You can check out our map of CSA pick-up sites to find one close to you! http://bit.ly/FrogHollowCSA

How Much Does Membership Cost? We'll charge your credit card for the full amount when you sign up, and we offer increasing levels of discounts for the longer commitment you make: e.g., 10% discount for a 13-week commitment, 15% discount for a 26 week commitment, and a 20% discount for a 52-week commitment.

The Fairytale Begins. Bump down a single-lane country road to Frog Hollow Farm on a hot summer morning, and the first thing you notice is the rich, summery perfume of sun-ripened peaches filling the air. Everywhere you look, fairy-tale bears and frogs cavort across boxes stacked to the sky. Some, filled with the most perfect fruit, might be heading to the kitchen of Chez Panisse or a local farmers market. Others have a shorter distance to go: just a few yards to the white, airy kitchen adjoining the packing shed, where they'll be simmered into conserves or sliced to fill buttery tarts and galettes. All around, mouth-watering fruit beckons: irresistible crimson plums dusted with silver bloom; plump, glowing apricots; nectarines that look airbrushed in burnished red; white peaches blushing pink on their downy cheeks
