Where and when do I pick up my shares?
There are nearly 20 locations across west Tennessee and north Mississippi where you can pick up your share box. Find the location that works best for you!
Are you organic?
We are not certified organic, but we follow many organic farming practices. We do not use petroleum-based pesticides or Roundup on any of our fruits or vegetables, and we do not grow any GMO crops. As parents, grandparents, and beekeepers, we ensure our farming practices are safe for our children and our bees!
What will be in my share? Do I get to choose?
Your share will include fresh, seasonal produce.
During the spring season, you’ll receive cool-season crops such as kale, greens, lettuce, carrots, cabbage, broccoli, strawberries, and other early-season vegetables and fruits. If you enjoy leafy greens like kale, lettuce, and Swiss chard, this is the season for you!
As we move into summer, you’ll enjoy warm-season crops like sweet corn, blueberries, squash, tomatoes, peppers, eggplant, and more. Fall will begin with a mix of warm-season crops and transition into cool-season crops as the season progresses.
Your share will automatically include the produce we’re harvesting each week, and you’ll have a “customization” period during which you can add or remove items from your box.
How much are shares? What sizes do you offer?
Standard Shares are $32 per delivery
We recommend this size for 1-3 people.
Large Shares are $41 per delivery (formerly referred to as a Family Share)
We recommend this size for families of 4 or more people or those smaller families that cook at home more frequently.
X-Large Shares are $52 per delivery
This is our largest share size! We recommend this size for hardcore foodies and large families who prepare most of their meals at home.
Can I split a share with someone else?
Yes! You are welcome to split a share with someone. However, share-splitting is the responsibility of the member; we do not manage the splitting of shares. Members may make arrangements with family, friends and/or neighbors.
Does Falcon Ridge Farm provide the container for our share?
Yes! You will receive your share in a cardboard box and/or plastic liner. Cardboard boxes are reusable, please return your empty box. The plastic liners are disposable or recyclable. (They repurpose well as trash bags for small to medium trash cans!)
What happens if I can’t make it to pick up my share?
CSA/Farm Share members can reschedule or place a hold on their shares as needed. If you miss your scheduled pick-up, please contact us at myfarmer@falconridge.farm within 24 hours of your pick-up time. We’ll do our best to arrange an alternative time for you to collect your share.
Do you provide products from other producers?
We proudly offer a variety of local products, including canned goods from Backermann’s Country Market, freshly roasted coffee from Frothy Monkey, and gourmet flavored butter from Wise Butter. For fresh produce, we grow over 90% of the fruits and vegetables included in our shares. To enhance the diversity of our offerings, we also source produce from other reputable local farmers whose practices align with our commitment to quality and sustainability.
