New for 2023: Mushrooms and Flowers!

We grabbed a stock image here - this is not an image of the actual mushroom share….

In addition to the incredible veggie shares grown at Circle Brook Farm in Andover, NJ, CSA Newark has offered optional Fruit Shares and Egg Shares for a long time. New for 2023 are an optional Mushroom Share as well as a Flower Share!

About the Mushroom Share:

Joe Aochoa is the owner/operator of Innoculated LLC. The company produces certified organic Exotic mushrooms in Fairfield NJ. This year, we are pleased to partner with Joe, to provide members with a weekly mushroom share.

Each week you will receive a half lb. box with an assortment of different culinary mushrooms. Varieties will include Blue, Green, or Yellow Oysters, Lion’s mane, Black Trumpets, Pioppinos, and shitakes.

The Mushroom Share runs in parallel to the veggie share:

This year John will offer a flower share to the CSA members during a 10 week period, beginning in Mid-July and ending by late September. Varieties will include: Snapdragons, Lisianthus, Sunflowers, and mixed bouquets featuring Zinnias, Cosmos, Celosias and other beautiful blooms. Brighten up your Day!
