Our 2011 spring shares are sold out. If you were hoping to purchase a spring share please email us at [email protected]. We will put your name on a waiting list just in case we have any spots become available. We still have summer shares available so be sure to grab one before they are all gone!

Penn's Corner is still accepting 2011 CSA members. Our spring share begins April 12th. That means that our farmers have no more time to be idle and are hard at work already. Seeds are germinating as I type! Sign up will close for the share on April 1st. That leaves just four weeks to grab one up. Click this link to go to our sign up page.
Please make note of the following new pick up locations:
We no longer have a pick up at Tazza D'Oro in Highland Park but we have two other locations in the neighborhood. One is on Jackson and one on Heberton near Stanton.
We have a new location in Dormont on Windermere.
A new Squirrel Hill location on Fair Oaks.
New Greenfield location back on Millington (at a different address).
A third Mt. Lebanon location on Briarwood.
Our Cranberry pick up has moved to nearby Bradford Woods.
Lawrenceville will no longer be at Dozen on Butler but has moved to a residence on Penn Avenue.
And finally, our Point Breeze location as moved to Lloyd Street.
If you have any questions or need help signing up please contact Karlin at [email protected].
Thanks and have a wonderful weekend!

We are very excited to announce that we have opened up our sign-up for the 2011 Penn's Corner CSA!
We have a new website and new payment options this year! If you choose to pay with a debit card or credit card you can pay in full or schedule your share to be paid in three installments. Please note that if you sign up and pay in full (single payment) by the end of February, you will receive a 3% discount!
In-full payments by check are the most cost effective for our farmers. Please choose this option when possible although all forms of payment are certainly welcome. Additionally, we are happy work out other payment schedules when necessary- just contact us.
