Harvest Box Policies and Procedures
Before ordering your Del Norte Harvest Box please carefully read through all of the following guidelines.
The Del Norte Harvest Box combines a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) model and grocery subscription into one. In a CSA model, the consumer agrees to subscribe for a number of weeks to purchase a "share" of the seasonal harvest. The agreement allows the producer needed capital for the season and ease of planning, knowing that what they produce will be purchased. In return the consumer receives fresh, local products direct from their local producer. By purchasing the Del Norte Harvest Box, you are committing to purchasing "shares" from local producers. The program provides our local producers with a consistent weekly income and gives consumers direct access to local products. You also will be allowed to shop in the store and add items to your subscription on a weekly basis. Store access accounts only are also available.
Our first pick up & deliveries for 2022 started Friday, June 10th and continue every Friday until the end of October.
Harvest Box Schedule: We need ample time to relay your order to local producers, get items delivered, and package up customer orders. Orders are available for pick up or delivery Fridays from 12-5. To get your order in for that week, you must be signed up for a share by Sunday or ordered your store items before Monday at noon.
Membership Fee: To participate in the Del Norte Harvest Box program, we require a one time $15 membership fee. This fee covers the costs of 2 cooler bags and ice packs for your orders and staff time for managing the program. You will be charged at the time of your first order. If this cost is prohibitory please reach out to us directly.
How do I get started? Click on “Sign Up” button above which will direct you to our Harvest Box ordering platform.

Out of Town or Cancellation: You have the flexibility to manage your subscription from your account. If you are going to be out of town, you can log in and put a hold on your box for the number of weeks you will not need your box. If you decide to stop your subscription completely, you can set a permanent hold on your box. We understand that things come up suddenly, but if you are not able to put a hold by Sunday then we will order your items from the producer on Monday. Holds or cancellations after Monday at noon means we will have ordered and paid for your items. If you find that you will not be available to recieve your order on Friday past the cancel deadline please try to find someone to pick up your bag or donate it to the Pacific Pantry. Bag orders canceled after Monday at noon means our small non-profit organizations pays for the cost of these items. If you need an immediate hold and can not figure out how to use the system, please contact Marina MacNeill, Food Operations Manager, (707) 464-0955 x 2108, mmacneill@frcredwoods.org ASAP.
