Hello everyone--

I'm gathering information for a new CSA hoping to startup this season. The
farmer has a desire to offer winter shares (mixture of stored root crops and
greenhouse greens). Does anyone from a climate similar to Vermont have any
information on whether this is currently being done, whether it is
successful, what kinds of costs are members willing to pay, etc? Any and all
info is welcome.

Thanks. Mary
