We deliver pre-boxed shares of our produce to locations in Belmont, Arlington and Bedford. Our 2010 delivery season runs from June 9 to October 27, twenty-one weeks in all. Pick-ups are on Wednesday afternoons and evenings. The shares come pre-boxed, and include 8-9 items each week. We send a weekly newsletter by email on Wednesday mornings, with recipes, farm notes and storage tips. The 2010 share cost is $545, including delivery to central locations in the Belmont, Bedford and Arlington areas.
We grow a wide range of vegetable crops, from lettuces to cooking greens, to herbs and tomatoes, to root crops and squashes. We also grow a few fruits (watermelon, cantaloupe and strawberries). See our crop listing here.

TO SIGN UP FOR A SHARE
To sign up for a share, return the sign-up form, here, to Picadilly Farm with a check. Because we incur many of our costs of production in the spring, we ask that shareholders who are able to do so pay the entire share price when signing up for the season. A payment plan is also available, with a $75 deposit when you sign up, $235 due April 15, and $235 due June 1st. We will send an email reminder about these payment due dates. We are open to working out a payment plan option that works better for your household (though we do prefer to have the share paid in full by the time the work of the harvest season begins). Please contact us if you'd like to arrange a special payment plan. Shares are sold first come, first served, and we expect to sell out this spring.
EXTENDED SEASON SHARES
Picadilly Farm partners with several Massachusetts farms to offer a Multi-Farm Extended Season Community Supported Agriculture share, in the fall through December. For more information, please contact Gretta Anderson at the Belmont Farm, grettaanderson@earthlink.net.
