2008 20-week and 12-week Vegetable Shares are Sold-Out!
Know your food, Know your
farmer - Really Fresh, Really Local...
We, here at Angelic Organics, have been growing vegetables since 1990 (2008 is our 19th year). In 1992 we adopted Biodynamic practices and the CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) subscription/membership/shareholder model. So satisfied are we with this direct, personal relationship with those who eat what we grow, that years ago we gave up our wholesale and restaurant customers. The CSA model has helped us move toward sustainability and toward farm sovereignty in ways that other channels were not able. And judging from our customers/CSA shareholders' responses (Many Thanks) the receivers of our vegetables are more satisfied as well.
With a pre-season payment, you can purchase a 'share' of our
season's harvest. You then receive a weekly box of our freshest, seasonal
produce during the course of either our 20-week harvest season (from mid-June
to late-October) or our 12-week harvest season (from mid-August to
late-October). Further, you may choose to extend the season with a Winter Share
- 4 additional boxes of storage vegetables to be delivered over the course of
November to early December.
If you have any questions, visit our FAQ Page .

Our current vegetable offerings
are:
- Please check back later in the season when shares become available for the 2009 season.
- Winter Shares are also sold out.

Fruit Shares are still available.
Angelic Organics is offering fruit shares once again. We
have had a great response about our offering Fruit Boxes with our
vegetable shares. Whereas every vegetable that you receive from Angelic
Organics is grown on our farm in North-central Illinois, none of the fruit is.
The fruit comes together from orchards, groves and farms across the land. In 2007, as we continue to improve our management of the fruit shares, we anticipate that our fruit shares will represent even a better value than in the past. If
you sign up for a fruit share, you will receive a fruit box every other
week along side your vegetable share during the course of either our 20-week
harvest season (10 fruit boxes delivered every other week from mid-June to
late-October) or our 12-week harvest season (6 fruit boxes delivered every
other week from mid-August to late-October). Further, you may choose to extend
the fruit season with a winter fruit share - 2 additional boxes to be delivered
over the course of November to early December.
To see the fruits which are included in this program, visit Delicious Fruits! If you have any additional questions, visit our Fruit Share Program Overview Page and our Fruit Share FAQ Page.
Please note, in order to sign up for a fruit share,
you must also be receiving a vegetable share of equal length or longer.
