A "full share"
member pays $60 per delivery and receives a bag (or two) of produce and
other products including farm fresh eggs.
A "half share" member pays $45 per delivery and receives half of what
a "full share" member receives (usually missing the rare and most expensive
items). We recommend to those contemplating a half share to find a cohort to
split the bounty!

filled with food facts & recipes. Also included is a menu to guide you
through your bag of goodies.

remembering to set out your cooler with your payment and during warmer
months with a freezer pack inside.
Every delivery is different, even if that means a different Heirloom sweet
corn two deliveries in a row. Quantity fluctuates with nature ~ more in
times of plenty, a little less in lean times. Luckily we have a good working
relationship with over one hundred central Indiana farmers, plus more within
250 miles. We pay fair prices for our purchases! We even have farmers
planting our own "Kids in Bloom" Heirloom seeds to purchase the crop for our
members each year.
By joining our group you are directly supporting your local food chain of
sustainable growers. You position yourself one step away from your food
provider while carving thousands of miles off of your carbon foot print.
Vegetarians and Members with allergies must
alert us to their needs so we can respect them. Otherwise, members receive
what our farmers have to sell.
Basic Roots Community Foods has hit the streets! If you live on the
near eastside or in Lockerbie, keep your eye out for JUICE, our mobile cart of fruits and
veggies, making good food easily accessible.
Value added goods direct from farmers are
pricey when you pay fair prices. Basic Roots strives to maintain value for our
members, stellar quality, freshness and variety while keeping our farmers
growing.
