This is the subscription to our summer CSA tote program. The large tote includes a standard portion of 6-8 items of produce each week. It is recommended for 4-6 people who like to eat produce or 1-3 who LOVE produce and eat at home often. Totes are carefully curated to offer the best produce in season.  The goal is to provide you with  convenient pre-selected produce. We don't offer customization of the boxes. If there is something you know you won't use in a tote, we suggest giving it to family, friends or a neighbor! 

This year we will be offering an exclusive (tote member only) behind the scenes tour of our growing areas- included with your tote membership.  Saturday June 21st at 10a.m. (more times will be added as needed). Take a wagon ride around the farm with stops at our high tunnels and fields, learning a little about our systems and growing methods along the way. You'll have the chance to ask questions with our produce grower.

The small might have a pint of blueberries and the large might have a quart).

Large Produce Tote

So much!

Large quantity and variety! Pushing me out of my comfort food zone and challenging me to prepare these new foods. The produce is beautiful! Can't wait to see what I get next.

Love the tote!

So glad Tuttles has this option! We are always looking for ways to eat local and this is great. The only thing I can say is that next season for our family of six we may do the large tote and a small tote. Both for the diversity of items and just because we eat a lot! 😊

Large Tote Summer 2023

We had just moved to the area and found Tuttle Orchards. My family loved the variety of fresh vegetables and we got to try new ones. Loved that we got a e-mail with each tote letting us know what we were getting and delicious recipes. We are continuing our totes this summer and looking forward to another summer of fresh vegetables. We also enjoy going to the farm to pick our tote and enjoy lunch at their cafe and shopping at their store. They have the best apple cider. I would reccommend this program to anyone who loves farm fresh vegetables!
