We currently have a lower number of veggies from our farm in the box because of our recent move and the winter climate (as some of you may be able to tell). In order to make sure to provide you the quality, quantity and variety that we strive for in every box, SCF will be including produce from other local farms we connect with. The information as to where your produce is coming from will be listed next to the item. Also, different days will have different varieties of produce and we will do our best to stay as accurate to each deliver days as possible. We continue to use organically grown produce. Thank you for your support and understanding!

Please know that we are transitioning from winter to summer items, which means we are "gapping." The winter items are bolting, which means growing so fast that they are flowering and tasting bitter. This is due to the heat. It is also not quite warm enough for our summer items to grown in abundance. We are trying our hardest to keep the boxes full, but may also try to supplement them with fruit and other items while we are experiencing this period of the season. Our hope is that the as the bounty grows, the abundance of boxes in the summer will offset the smaller amounts during this time.
Please note that this is a tentative list and subject to change based on the amount harvested before drop off.
