🧺 Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) Harvest Box Program

A fresh way to farm is here! Introducing the CSA Harvest Box Program — a rewarding, community-driven initiative designed to challenge your planning and boost your farm's reputation.

How It Works:
• Weekly Goal: Pack and deliver 5 fresh, seasonal crops per CSA member
• Use the New Packing Station: Assign a worker to prepare each box
• Stay on Schedule: Weekly pickups every Monday
• Seasonal Planning: Crops rotate with the seasons — plan ahead
• Membership Changes: Exceed goals to gain members, miss goals and members may leave

Progress & Rewards:
• Earn +1 Rep Point for each successful week (no penalty for missed weeks)
• Available in Endless Mode for ticket-style play

Features:
• Enable or disable CSA via the new CSA top window
• Fully customizable weekly crop plan
• Editable CSA price calculator
• Quick Plan Buttons:
- Reset to default
- Randomize
- Auto-select 5 easy crops
• Seasonal crop selector ensures appropriate crop rotation

CSA Add-Ons: (Higher Risk, Higher Reward!)
• Jam CSA
• Egg & Honey CSA

New Buildings:
• Packing Station – Assign a worker to pack CSA boxes
• Cold Storage – Increases storage for packed CSA items

🌱 19 New Crops Added

Your crop variety just got an upgrade! Now grow:

Red Cabbage, Spinach, Cauliflower, Parsley, Dandelion, Celery, Chives, Arugula, Eggplant, Leek, Kale, Buttercrunch, Kohlrabi, Bok Choy, Peppermint, Radish, Radicchio, Sweet Potato, Turnip
