Our Produce Boxes

How it Works: By signing up for a harvest box, you are joining the Sirius Micro Farm team. You pay upfront for fresh holistically grown vegetables from our farm, that you will pick up each week. You will be given an assortment of vegetables, and even some fruit when its in season! You will get a weekly email letting you know what you will be receiving, or whats available that week along with a recipe idea and updates to what is happening on the farm.

The Benefits to You: Each week you are receiving fresh local produce that has just been harvested. No need to be the first one there to ensure you get your vegetables. Our vegetables are grown holistically, with only natural amendments such as compost. You will also get to meet your local farmers, and see where your food is grown, and be part of a farming community.

Why Buy Ahead? Buying ahead also saves you money. Your box will save you about 10% on all your produce. That means you get 10% more than if you just ordered online from our store.

The Benefits to us Farmers: When you sign up for a harvest box, you are believing in our farm and the food we are growing. When you purchase your box in the early spring, the money goes towards all the seeds and equipment needed for the season. Each box also allows us to know exactly how much to harvest each week ensuring there is little waste from over harvesting.

Which Box Do I Choose? Our boxes are very convenient. You just come once a week and pick up your veggies. Our standard box is great for 2 people or a family that doesn’t eat too many veggies. You will see roughly 7-8 different veggies each week. Our large box is better suited to larger families or those who love their veggies. Our large box will usually have the same veggies as our stand box, just more of each veggie. Some weeks there may be a couple extra veggies than what you would find in the standard box.
