CSA FAQ >
We ask that all CSA related questions or comments be emailed to csa@taprootfarmpa.com.
However, please call or text us on the day of your pick up if you need any help with your share.
No problem! We understand that the CSA season is also vacation season! Members can schedule a vacation hold through their online account, and choose to double up on another week to make up for the missed share or request to donate their share for the week to our local food bank.
All vacation holds & make up shares must be requested prior to the week they are needed.
Holds and doubles include all of the shares members are registered for (i.e., veggies, eggs, cheese, etc.)
There is no limit to the number of vacation holds for a given member.
Yes. Members can always switch their location, no problem. Location switches can be made temporarily for one week, or permanently for the remainder of the season. Members can go right into their own account online and schedule their location switch.
All location changes must be requested prior to the week they are needed.
Members can go right into their own account online and schedule their location change.
Yes and no. If you would like to add an additional share such as eggs or mushrooms after the season has begun, you may do so as long as we have them available.
If you would like to change the size of your vegetable share you may do so as well. We do not offer a refund if you choose to downgrade your share size. If you are uncertain about the best share size for your household, we encourage members to purchase smaller shares to start. If, as the season progresses, you find yourself wanting a larger share, you are more than welcome to upgrade at any time and we will prorate the balance.
Please email us to upgrade your vegetable share.

Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee any CSA share past the allotted time of your pick up, even 5 minutes past. We will, however, do everything we can to try & save that share for you! Please call or text us as soon as you suspect you’ll be late or miss your pick up.
PLEASE DO NOT ARRIVE LATE TO PICK UP YOUR CSA SHARE WITHOUT FIRST CONTACTING US AT THE FARM.
Sure! You don’t need to contact us about this. Please just be sure to pass along our cell phone number to whoever will be picking up your shares that week, and please be sure to give them all if the information they need for a smooth pick up.
