PETERBOROUGH — Nubanusit Neighborhood and Farm Community Supported Agriculture, better known as Nubi CSA, is growing this year.

It is only the CSA’s second year, Nubanusit resident Barbara Michelson said Tuesday, but the project is ready to expand beyond residents of the co-housing development on Steele Road in West Peterborough.

There are eight new shares available in the CSA this growing season, Michelson said. Last year residents quickly bought the 26 available shares, she said. This year there will be 34 available.

“We’re doing it on a little bigger scale this year,” Michelson said. “This is the first time we’re looking for people.”

Nubi CSA boasts more than 200 varieties of vegetables, herbs, and flowers, available from late May through October. Learning and recipe exchange opportunities are also offered to members of the CSA.

A requirement of being a member of a CSA is participating physically and financially in the farm work, Michelson said.

“We’re trying to make the work very educational and enjoyable,” she said, and added. “We’re very interested in sharing garden experiences with children. So we’ll have a little children’s area.”

Todd Horner, a recent graduate of Vassar College, is returning to run the farm again this year, she said. He served as the Nubi CSA farmer last year.

“He is the brains behind the operation,” Michelson said.

She said Nubi CSA now has a longer growing season.

“We got a hoop house that we put up last year as a community so it extends our season ... more greens, earlier tomatoes, that kind of thing.”

One share in the CSA is an estimated 3 to 7 pounds of produce per week during the growing season, with greens available in the hoop house during the colder months. Members can also pick from the flower garden and herb bed.

Nubi CSA offers three levels of membership. A working sharing costs $468 and requires the member to take on a regular farm job. A basic share costs $605 and requires the member to work four 3- to 4-hour sessions on the farm. And the patron share costs $715. Patrons are welcome to farm but are not required to.
