Storage shares are still available!
The Storage Share includes two deliveries:
November 10th & December 8th.
We include detailed storage tips on how to store your produce.
Each delivery includes: 15# potatoes, 5# carrots, 5# onions; plus winter squash, cabbage, kale, leeks, daikon radishes, beets, celeriac, rutabaga, turnips, brussels sprouts, garlic, winter radish & pie pumpkins.
The cost of the Storage Share is $165. You can sign up by sending a check to Vermont Valley Community Farm, 4628 CTY RD FF, Blue Mounds, WI 53517. No need to fill out a sign up form if you are already a member; please update us if contact information has changed. If you are not currently a member, fill out a sign up form and send it in along with your payment.
We consolidate our Storage Share pick up sites to 5-6 locations because the weather during the Storage Share deliveries can be very cold and snowy. We choose sites with heated facilities and easy parking so vegetables don’t freeze, members can more easily park and our delivery trucks have fewer sites to drive to in the event of snow. The past two December delivery dates have coincided with blizzards!! We will post the sites as soon as they have been confirmed.
All members signed up for a Storage Share will receive an e-mail from the farm with more detail and site information.
If you want a Storage share we need your signup/payment by Sept 30th.

We are very interested in a storage share, but we do not have a lot of refrigerator space. Will the majority of the produce need to be refrigerated?

Many of the Storage share items do need to be refrigerated, but not all of them. We do send out a storage information sheet with the share. To get a good idea of what you will receive in the Storage Share and how to store it you can look at last season’s storage information sheet http://vermontvalley.com/newsletters/Storage%20Share%20November%20Delivery.pdf

Thank you so much for posting this! This helped me make my decision! Hopefully next year I will have more refrigerator space!

Will you be selling just potatoes like you have in years past?

We will not be selling extra potatoes this season. Willy Street Coop East, Willy Street Coop West, and Wholefood Market all stock our potatoes though.
