Produce Share Sample Lists

Because Horse and Buggy Produce has over 100 growers, we can provide a huge variety of fruits and vegetables. Each week when you come to pick up your produce, it will be laid out for you in baskets, crates or boxes with signs indicating how much of each item to take. You'll select and sometimes weigh your own produce based on the menu we’ve selected for the week. Additionally, there will always be a huge selection of a la carte items available to suppliment your subscription.

When you arrive, you'll see separate tables for the produce shares, meat shares, and a la carte items.

This year, we're offering three different share sizes: Family, Couples, and Single. Family shares are a little bit bigger than last year's Full shares, while Couples shares are about 2/3 the size of Family shares. Singles shares are the same size as Couples shares, but are collected every other week instead of every week.

Prices (of three equal payments) are:
Family Share - $280.00; $304.50 w/ 9 eggs
Couples Share - $197.00; $214.50 w/ 6 eggs
Singles Share - $99.50; $108.50 w/ 6 eggs

¤ While we will do everything in our power to replicate what we delivered last year, we cannot guarantee quantities nor availability of certain items. This obviously due to market forces affecting prices, as well as the vagaries of Mother Nature.

There will also be a variety of items available to purchase á la carte. These include not only the items listed below, but also such things as asparagus, carrots, napa cabbage, honey, raspberries, blackberries, cut flowers, okra, fresh herbs, garlic, edamame, pies, etc..
