Subscriptions
Our three subscription options are carefully curated to meet your needs, whether you cook almost all your meals at home, or just a few, whether you eat a lot of meat or none at all. Designed to keep your fridge full but not bursting, a Gather subscription helps you plan your meals, avoid waste, and keeps things interesting with a colorful array of fruits, veggies, cheese, and cuts of meat from the whole animal.
Subscriptions are fulfilled every 2 weeks. When you sign up, you’ll have the option to select a pick up location, or opt for door-to-door delivery. The specific contents of your box will vary with the seasons, but it will always match the format outlined for each specific subscription.

About our subscriptions
-
Subscriptions allow us to maintain great working relationships with our farm sources, helping small producers plan what they plant knowing that the food they raise is going to be enjoyed. They give you a convenient way to ensure you’re stocking your fridge with nutrient dense, local produce, dairy, and meat every two weeks.
-
We source produce, dairy, and meat from a range of 60+ small family run farms in our region, with a focus on Central Illinois. All our producers employ sustainable practices and all produce is non-GMO. All meat is raised on pasture and is free of antibiotics, hormones, and GMOs.

-
All meat in your CSA box is butchered from whole-carcass here in Chicago by our small team of expert butchers. By sourcing directly from farms we trust and relying on a local supply chain, we ensure quality, freshness, and combat waste. The full range of cuts that the animal offers makes its way to our boxes and add-on shop. We find a use for all of the odds and ends. Fats are rendered, bones are made into stock, and we sell offal whole and in our raw dog food.
-
You have a choice between delivery and pick up for your Gather CSA subscription. We have partnered with a couple of our favorite small businesses around the city as pick up locations. For ease of operations, we request that you commit to one location, but if you need to switch pick ups for a week or two, just drop us a line at info@gathercsa.com
