    Excellent option for CSA. The produce is very good, nice variety and plenty for the share I got…read more(mini share). I also liked and appreciated the good and prompt communication. All in all I highly recommend them. Over the years, I had other arrangements: CSA, Full Circle... But Helsing is the best experience for me.

    We've been really pleased with our CSA share from Helsing this year and will sign up with them…read moreagain next year if we're still living in Olympia. We tried a different CSA last year (there are four local organic CSA options that deliver to my husband's workplace) and we much prefer Helsing. We like Helsing better because they have given us more variety, because we adore the fruit share, and because they have taken the time to provide good recipes. We signed up for the mini share and are hard pressed to keep up with what we receive every week! There are the two of us and we're vegetarians, yet we get so much from them every week that we can't eat it all before the next batch arrives. We freeze, can, or give away extra, it's that generous. The CSA we had last year from the different farm kept giving us the same things week after week--carrots, chard, potatoes--and we're really pleased that Helsing has so much changing variety. Sometimes we have only received something for a week or two and wish we could be getting it for longer! We LOVE the fruit share. Local organic fruit costs us high prices at the Oly farmer's market, but with the fruit share we are getting a great deal. The first few weeks are a little slow when only berries are ready, but after that we get a ton of stone fruit that is delicious and much more bang for our buck than at the farmer's market. For example, one week I was at the market and bought a container of cherries for about $15. A few days later my fruit share gave me the same amount of cherries plus several other pounds of fruit, all for $15 a week. Nice. We get peaches, nectarines, apples, berries, plums, pluots, etc etc We have tried a number of their recipes, and have been impressed. Someone has put a lot of effort into finding recipes that only use the seasonal ingredients that are actually tasty. Everything has been good, and a few have been excellent, such as the recipe for fennel with honey, goat cheese, etc --it's amazing. You can search their recipe database by ingredients. I appreciate that they never leave me hanging for ideas, since with every CSA you get exposed to both old and new ingredients and the recipe help is appreciated.

    Ok, Let me Start by saying I would have never gone here by myself. The girls decided that this is…read morewhere my buddy and I would be having lunch and that, as they say, was that. When you walk in you may be shocked at the lack of organization. There Is usually just one old hippie, (The owner) working, and he like's to chat! That said, It does take a bit to get a group thru the line. No matter tho, the line is where the fun is. Because of how the menu is setup I'll have to break it down into categories It start's with your "fruitbowl" behind the subway like counter they have a variety of fruits: pineapple, Cantaloupe, honeydew, watermelon oranges, grapefruit, blackberries, strawberries, kiwi's, cherries, mangoes, green/red grapes, carrots, celery. You pick what YOU want, CUSTOM STYLE! I should state, This is the juiciest, freshest, most Delicious, fruit i have ever had, Anywhere. I have literally picked a fresh melon and it wasn't as good. I don't know what It is,but leave it to a old hippie to have amazing fruit! I highly recommend the oranges, I usually get those with grapefruit strawberries and cantaloupe. maybe a Kiwi or if they have a special fruit that day. He throws in some Cheese/meat/ crackers free! The Side Depending on which meal you get, or if you want to add a little sumthin sumthin", sides are the way to go for fat kids like me! you can pick from things like: fruit pie (made every morning) trail mix (he again custom makes it with what YOU want) chocolate bananas, frozen fruit/juice cups, and fresh made mango/ strawberry lemonade, and the best Scones you will ever put in your mouth!(covered in strawberries OR pineapple upon request!) The Freebies As if all that wasn't enough, you can have some cottage cheese, yogurt, or a banana FREE! CRAZY Right?!?!?! The four of us have turned this into a Sunday ritual and possibly,for me, 2 or 3 other times this week :-) Need one last reason to go? bring your own container, you get like a doller off! I'm telling you try it once, If nothing else then to keep this healthy alternative around!

    Great place to stop when the weather is nice. The smoothies are just fruit and some yogurt (no…read morejuice added) The selection of fruit is like no other! I love being able to make my own fruit platter for BBQ;s too. Seems like there is always the same boring fruit trays. The other day I had one made with Blackberries, Blueberries, Kiwi, Strawberries, Apricots, Mangoes & Pineapple. It was a huge hit!
