What is a CSA and why is it important?
A CSA is a partnership between farmers and community members where customers subscribe to a season’s worth of fresh, local produce in advance. It is an investment in us to work hard to provide the best produce possible for you and your family.

Your support helps us plan our growing season: how much to plant, how much labor to hire, etc. — all the practices and work allowing us to farm regeneratively (not reactively). You also support Redlands jobs, our local food system, and keeping our groves alive! And the benefit to you? You get fresh produce that's picked at its ripeness, so you get more flavor and more nutrition! You also get to meet your growers and connect with where your food is grown. 

 

How It Works

  1. Choose your share:

    1. Little Cutie

    2. Main Squeeze

    3. Big Squeeze

    4. Just the ‘cados
       

  2. Pick up: Every other Monday, 4–8 pm at our avocado grove off of Wabash and 6th Avenue (starting Dec 15, 2025)

  3. Member Guidelines (friendly, but important)

    1. Box exchange: Please return your crate, box and/or bag at each pickup for us to fill up for next time.

    2. Pickup window: Mondays 4–8 pm. Can’t make it? Send a friend—just text us their name.

    3. Missed boxes: Unclaimed boxes are donated locally (e.g., YouthHope / Family Services) —no refunds, but your food does good.

    4. Communication: We’ll email before the season starts and text reminders on pickup weeks.

    5. Add-ons: Extra fruit, eggs, special goodies or seconds may be available at pickup.

What to Expect — Eating with the Seasons

Your CSA box will change throughout the 9-month season—because that’s how nature works best!

  • Winter & Spring (Dec–May): Boxes are citrus-heavy with juicy navels, and creamy Zutano and Hass avocados.

  • Early Summer (May–June): Oranges continue, Hass avocados peak, and blackberries begin to make an appearance.

  • Summer (June–Aug): A colorful mix—sweet Valencias, vine-ripened tomatoes, and blackberries.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Why this matters: Grocery stores offer the same fruits year-round by shipping them thousands of miles, often picked underripe. By contrast, your CSA box reflects the rhythm of the grove—what’s ready, ripe, and most flavorful at that moment.

When boxes feel “heavy on oranges” early in the season, it’s because citrus is abundant and at its nutritional peak. When summer arrives, you’ll notice more variety as tomatoes and berries ripen. That ebb and flow is the beauty of eating with the seasons—healthier for you, healthier for the soil, and healthier for our community.​
