the Butterbee CSA

THE DETAILS

Getting your Share: Pick up on Fridays between 1 and 6 pm at Greedy Reads in Remington or Fells Point in Baltimore.

How to Join: Join our CSA by adding whichever shares you’d like to your cart and checking out. We are keeping it small at just 20 members, so grab your spot! CSA registration for the Early and Late Spring seasons closes on March 1st, 2025, or until we sell out. Registration for Early and Late Fall seasons closes July 1st, 2025, or until we sell out.

What to Expect: Each week, you’ll bring home a bucket of 35-45 stems. In springtime, typical shares include ranunculus, anemone, stock, freesia, tulips, and more. In the fall, typical shares include dahlias, celosia, eucalyptus, marigolds, and more. We carefully choose focals, filler, and foliage in beautiful color palettes for each share.

But How? You might be wondering how we can include premium flowers like dahlias, freesia, and ranunculus at this price? The reason is: CSAs are reliable income for farmers during the off-season when we most need it. Essentially, your commitment to us makes it all worth it!

A Typical Spring Share: 5 stems ranunculus, 10 stems stock, 5 stems snapdragons, 5 stems scented geranium, 5 stems dusty miller, 5 stems poppies

A Typical Fall Share: 5 stems dahlias, 10 stems celosia, 5 stems millet, 5 stems gomphrena, 5 stems zinnia, 5 stems eucalyptus

The Logistics: Your share is in a bucket, which you’ll take home and bring back empty the following week (or whenever you remember!). Pick up at whichever Greedy Reads location you selected during checkout.

Can’t pick up one week? If you need to miss a week or cannot pick up in time, you can send a friend. We cannot change your pickup dates or offer refunds; thank you for understanding! Your CSA will be gifted to Greedy Reads staff if it’s not picked up between 1-6 pm on Fridays.

Gifting a Share: You can absolutely give a share as a gift, just check with your recipient to make sure they’re good to pick up at your Greedy Reads location on Fridays!

KIND WORDS:

“Superb! Sometimes the flowers last longer than the next pick-up so I end up with double the beauty.”

“I’m just really happy that you are offering this. I love to buy fresh flowers and this takes one step — remembering to make the time — out of the equation. And your flowers are absolutely lovely.”

“I liked the variety that you put together each week — always a happy surprise.”
