2023 Subsidized Share details
Hellgate CSA is committed to making our CSA financially accessible to our neighbors. We offer a number of subsidized (half price) vegetable shares. These shares are available to those who fit into the guidelines below based on annual income and family size - calculated by the number of people using the share. If you do not fit into this framework but have extenuating circumstances email us.

Subsidized shares are given out on the honor system. If you have substantial resources beyond earned income, please be mindful of those who don’t and purchase a full-priced share instead. Family size and income is calculated on all income, not just salary and by the number of people eating the share (whether or not they are related) and those people’s total pre-tax income from all sources.
Although these shares are given on the honor system, the core group reserves the right to ask for supporting documents.
We only offer discounts on the vegetable share at this time.
The subsided shares are half price.
