How to care for your CSA boxes so we can reuse them week after week.

“You just have to take your time and be smarter than the box.”
-Ripley Farm CSA member

The CSA box can be an intimidating beast for some members new at it. Rip! Ugh, bad feelings as another one bites the dust. But, it doesn’t have to be that way!

That’s is why we’ve created a short slideshow tutorial to train you to open it with ease every time! Share this with your husband and other members of the house, too.

Watch this and you’ll get it down! High five!
