PREMIUM ACCESS TO LOCAL AND ORGANICALLY GROWN FOOD: Secure an entire growing season worth of local produce grown organically for you and your family without the hustle of the farmer’s market. Our CSA will be supported 50/50 by TWO farms which will enable a broader selection and availability of produce.
FLEXIBILITY: Flexible pickup hours give you more time to pick up your share during the day. Friday pickups can be switched to Tuesday if out of town for the weekend. Flexible Share amounts create availability for households of all sizes. You have the ability to choose what you want instead of having your share pre-selected for you. This way, you won’t feel like you’re wasting food.
CONVENIENT LOCATION: Our CSA Pickup is located right in town at the farm, in the Mountain View neighborhood in NE Bend, Oregon.
PARKING: There is adequate parking at the farm. This way you can have the same market style shopping experience at the farm without the crowds and without the problems of finding a parking spot.
QUALITY: The food tastes delicious and is exceptionally high quality. The food will have more flavor and more vibrancy than what you find from produce delivered to you from out-of-state or out-of-country. The freshness holds the nutrient-content in the food that is established by the high percentage of organic matter in the soil that the food is grown in.
SUPPORT A LOCAL FOOD SYSTEM: There is nothing fresher than eating food that was grown in your neighborhood. It tastes better, you know and trust the farmers that grew it and you can even see where the food is grown. It’s comfortable and easy to buy produce in the grocery store, but if you had the choice to support your community by buying food here vs. food grown from out-of-town, you would choose here. There is no better time than now for you to make the conscious effort to escape your comfort zone by going to grocery stores and instead eat food that is produced by your community. We only grow food for you. <3

Members will experience a diverse array of some of the best varieties of fruits and vegetables that grow here in the High Desert. Between both farms we grow over 80 different crops. You will be able to select from up to 20 items of produce each week which will be dictated by what’s currently in season.

When you are signing up for your CSA Membership, you will be asked to pick Tuesday or Friday as your scheduled CSA pickup day. Members do have the option to change their assigned pickup day between Friday and Tuesday with advanced notice that is scheduled with your farmers. Please email BoundlessxFibonacci@gmail.com to schedule an alternative pick up day if you won’t be available to pick up during your scheduled pick up day.

That’s OK! Your farmers will come up with a share for you of what they think is the best and most in-season produce that week. It will be called “Farmer’s Choice”. When you come to pick up your share the contents of the Farmer’s Choice will be written on the board for you to bag up and take home.

Switch Pickup Days/ Weeks: With advanced notice for Weekly members, we can switch your pick up day that week and for Bi-Weekly members, we can switch your pickup week or day if needed. Send an email to your farmer before your food is harvested for the share you can’t pick up and we will reschedule you a new pick up.
Send a Friend! This is a great way of sharing healthy goods with your friends, family, coworkers and neighbors. Please onboard your friend on how to use the Pre-Selection Form and pick-up protocol.
If You Forgot to Pick Up Your Share: We cannot reschedule a new pickup day/time for you and you cannot pick up at the market. It is very time consuming for your farmers to adjust their tight schedules to accommodate missed pickups. If you forgot to pickup after the pickup has ended your share will be boxed up and donated to the Oregon Food Bank. Which is going to a great cause and is not going to waste!

Check (preferred method): Checks can be mailed to the farm at 62910 Eagle Rd. Bend, Or 97701 made out to Boundless x Fibonacci CSA. Once received we will email you a confirmation receipt for your membership. Payments by check or cash are expected within 15 days of signing up for a share. If they are not received, we will reach out to you one time. If we do not hear back from you within 3 days, you will forfeit your spot.
Payment Plan: If it is better for you financially to not have to pay for your CSA up front, you can choose to pay in monthly installments. First payment is due upon sign-up, one month later payment two is due, one month later payment three and one month later- final payment will be due.
All payments must be received no later than June 13th.
Credit Card: If you wish to pay with a Credit Card, Venmo, there will be an additional 3% charge added to your total cost to cover credit card merchant fees. As a small farm, it is a big expense for us to cover merchant fees and ask that if you prefer to use these payment methods that you cover the fee. You can avoid these fees by sending a check or dropping off cash.
SNAP/ EBT: The Double Up Food Bucks Program offers 50% off of your total CSA Membership and is paid in monthly installments through your Oregon Trail Card throughout the duration of the CSA Season. We will work together with you after sign-up to get you registered.

Yes. If you purchased a share and will no longer be available to pick it up before the season starts, we will refund you for the full amount. If you are unsatisfied with your share during the season, we will give you a refund for the remainder of your CSA Share for the season. We are unable to refund any shares already received.
