First Root farm CSA share size?

[pukwudgie.livejournal.com]

Hi All,
I just signed up for a share of the First Root Farm CSA that has a drop-off in Davis (thanks to the poster who mentioned it a few weeks ago). I was wondering if anyone who had gotten their share last year could comment on the size? For the last few years, I've done Red Fire Farm, and definitely needed to split a single share with another couple. I'm in a 2 person, non-vegetarian household. The First Root share sounds a little smaller than Red Fire, but can anyone speak to their experience with it?

For anyone interested, when I asked on Sunday, First Root said they did still have shares available.

Happy thinking of summer and growing things -- though it seems a really long way off!

I was a member last year. I'm in a 2 person vegetarian household, and we generally cook at home 6 nights per week. We found the First Root Farm share to be a good size for us, even occasionally supplementing it with additional veggies from the farmer's market (although mostly only things that First Root Farm did not grow). If you cook vegetable heavy dinners only 3-4 nights a week, you could probably split a share with another couple with similar cooking habits, but for us a full share was the right size.
