We would like to grow this operation fairly rapidly. We anticipate 120 CSA members in year one, 240 CSA members in year two and 360 CSA members in year three. Additional growth in future years will depend upon the ability to rent additional cropland as we anticipate the current cropland will only be able to support a maximum of CSA members based on their estimate of 25 CSA members per crop acre. The farm markets will be primarily used as a location to sell excess vegetables. Future plans are to grow and sell “ethnic produce” based on a marketing study that Joe is currently working on. This may require adding some hoop greenhouses to start crops sooner and potentially run later in the season.
