Osage Gardens CSA

36730 River Frontage Road
970-876-0668

At the CSA Farm Pick Up the produce is displayed 'Market Style' with signs that show how much produce you get to take (i.e. two heads of lettuce, one zucchini, two large tomatoes, one bunch beets, etc.). The items will change on a weekly basis depending on what is abundant and ready to harvest. While we expect standard items to be available every week like lettuces, tomatoes, peppers, herbs, etc, other items will appear every two to three weeks, such as eggplant, beets, kohlrabi, kale, etc. There will also be additional produce and other items available for sale.

At the Glenwood Pickup, the produce will be pre sorted and waiting in our refrigerated truck. You will need to bring your own box or bag to transfer the produce into to bring it home. This helps keep our costs down and makes our farm much more sustainable.
