A new multi-farm CSA in the Valley!

The Wily Carrot is excited to team up with Mountain Roots Produce and Stubborn Farm to create the new Mancos Valley CSA.  The Mancos Valley CSA will offer fresh, organically-grown veggies from The Wily Carrot and Mountain Roots Produce as well as fresh eggs and grass-fed beef from Stubborn Farm - a full-plate CSA!  Not only will this partnership allow you to directly support three local farms but it will provide you with a more diverse array of farm products throughout the growing season.

We promise, this won't be your standard fare CSA.  Every week, we will offer options for you to choose from.  Don't like turnips?  No problem, try beets instead!  Every CSA member will also receive a canvas tote for transporting those delicious veggies home; so you won't have to worry about returning bulky boxes every week.

And, as an extra bonus, all of our members will receive 10% off at Zuma's, our favorite natural foods grocery store in the Valley.

What kind of veggies should you expect throughout the season?  Here is a look at what a typical box will include as the season progresses:
