All boxes include approximately 7-8 items in spring/early summer, and 10-12 items in summer and fall. Half share = 5/9 bushel; Full share - 1 1/9 bushel. In addition to weekly full and half shares, all members may set up a 'Friend of the Farm' account to purchase specific extras via an al a carte system.

At Sunbow Farm we grow over seventy-five different fruits and vegetables using sustainable and chemical-free methods. Our farm functions as a CSA farm where members purchase shares in the farm and then receive weekly produce from May 1 to November 1. 20 week shares (from June 15 - Nov. 1) are also available. Weekly drop spots include the farm, downtown Eau Claire and in Chippewa Falls (on Thursdays). All members are encouraged (but not required!) to help at the farm. Kids are always welcome for tractor rides and planting/weeding in the children's garden. In addition we raise chickens (for meat and eggs) and sheep.
