Golden Gills Weekly CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) Subscribe today for your weekly pickup of fresh mushrooms at our storefront! One common thread that ties local farmers to the community they serve, is Community Supported Agriculture shares. For Golden Gills, a CSA subscription is the best way to support the sustainability of our business. Most CSA's require shares to paid up front. We want to make our mushrooms and local food for that matter, more accessible. Bearing that in mind, this CSA order is a single weekly charge, with a weekly pickup of mushrooms from our farm in Wauconda, IL. Each week we’ll put together a sustainably packaged share full of mushrooms with our current varieties, in the size box that you ordered. If you miss your pickup and do not arrange for another option, your share will be donated to the Crystal Lake Food Pantry. Some varieties you can expect to receive in a rotating selection are: Oyster (Assorted Blue, King, Phoenix, Black Pearl King are some typical options) Lion's Mane Chestnut Pioppino Specialty Varieties only available to subscribers! We offer in-person pickup Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays WAUCONDA: Tuesday/Wed/Friday/Saturday: 10:00am to 3pm GOLDEN GILLS HQ 429 LIBERTY STREET WAUCONDA, IL 60084 Price is per week; includes one share option per week of our seasonally cultivated mushroom varieties Single Share: $14/week (1 lb share for 1 person) Large Share: $25/week (2 lb share for 2-4 people) Family Share = $35/week (3 lb share for 2-6 people) Golden Gills mushrooms are handcrafted in small batches and picked fresh for local distribution. We take pride in producing quality gourmet mushrooms using agricultural and forestry byproducts as our primary growing mediums. Our natural methods of production accelerate decomposition, building soil and cycling nutrients – critical processes for healthy ecosystems. We donate our exhausted substrates as soil amendments to our friends in farming that we work in cooperation with. Buying Golden Gills mushrooms keeps your dollar local and supports woman-owned local farming and sustainability.
