OUR NEIGHBORS BASKET PROGRAM
The Neighbor’s Basket Program is our first CSA initiative designed to ensure that everyone, regardless of financial means, has consistent access to fresh, local groceries.
The Why: Dignity-First Food Access
The core of the program is a trust-based $0–$30 sliding scale. Customers interested in a basket can simply choose the price they are able to pay, with no application, questions, or proof of need required.
The difference between the customer’s chosen price and the $30 value is covered by The Neighbor’s Basket Fund. This fund is continuously replenished through customer generosity and our annual “Round Up at the Register” program that runs from November to December. These contributions directly fuels community access and guarantees that local farmers are paid full price for their goods.
How To Access
Anyone can reserve a Neighbor’s Basket at the register and pay the price that works best for you. You must reserve by Sunday to receive a basket the following Thursday. Baskets are available for convenient pickup every Thursday at 3PM.
How To Donate
We primarily raise money for the Neighbor’s Basket Fund through annual “Round Up at the Register” that runs from November 1 - December 31st. However, we also accept one-time donations all year round. Visit the store and ask any staff member how you can contribute today.
