A share in the harvest of Tumbling Shoals Farm is a custom packed box of the absolute freshest, quality, certified organic fruits and vegetables from our farm and a few neighboring farms delivered each week to locations in Boone, Charlotte, Lenoir, Hickory or Wilkes County or for pick up here at the farm in Millers Creek.
Your share is custom packed for you each week: you set your veggie preferences before the season begins and we create a box based on your preferences, and then you can still swap out veggies at will! Our main season is 22 weeks with deliveries beginning the first week in May and running through September. The fall season is 11-weeks beginning in October and running up to Christmas, with no share deliveries the week of Thanksgiving so our farmily can visit their family.
We have three main season share sizes available, and one fall season size available:
Fall Share $265/11-week season+$1/week box cost=$287
This one size fits all share is slightly smaller than a regular share and slightly larger than a small share.
This is for an average veggie eating family that does nearly all of their cooking at home. The two of us (not vegetarians) use up a regular share and more in our veggie-heavy household, with one meal out per week. Registration open now, sign up here
Small Share $433/22-week season+$1/week box cost=$455
This share is made for couples or small families that eat outside the home a bit. Registration open now, sign up here
This share is jam packed fresh organic veggies each week. If you eat almost strictly vegetables, or have a large veggie eating family, and almost never eat out, this could be the share for you.
