Hi everyone, I'm new to this list from Johnny's.  I have been reading posts for about a week or so and find it very interesting in knowing what farmers/growers are doing with their crops.
Would like to know how a farmer comes up with the number of "shares" to sell and how much of the product is given to each "share". I checked out the CSA web site and I understand how the price is figured per share, per season. I could'nt find anything on how to gage portions or number of shares.  Just curious. I do grow some corn, peas, beans, and squash on about 3/4 acre and sell to my neighbors.  I also sell eggs and fryer rabbits. 
 
Janet
