What is a CSA and how does it work?

CSA stands for Community-Supported Agriculture. It works like this: our farm offers "shares" to the public. Members pre-buy these shares and pick-up their box of certified organic vegetables once a week for twenty weeks. A typical share consist of a box of 5-7 seasonal items. In addition to vegetable shares our farm offers a Meat CSA, Chicken and Pork shares.

Where do I pick up my share?

Our convenient pick-up locations and hours make the farm-to-table experience easier for busy folks to support local agriculture. Click here for a complete list of drop sites. Pick-up times are from 3 to 6 pm on Wednesdays from June through October. We do one last pick-up the week before Thanksgiving. Looking for the on-farm experience? Join us instead on Thursdays at the farm for your CSA pick-up. Visit the animals , pick some herbs and flowers, hang-out on the farm. We are always looking for neighborhood captains to help us expand our reach. This is a great way to connect with your community, save money and eat well. If we use your house as a drop spot and you're able to host at least 5 members you'll save 15% on your total membership, if you host 10 members you'll save 30% and if you host over 15 members you'll save 50%. If this is of interest to you contact us and we can go over the details.

Can I still purchase a share?

Yes! The easiest way is to use the on-line check out. You can also send a check to the farm. We accept members throughout the season, if you miss the first pick-ups we can do a pro-rated share. 

What do I get?

A lot depends on the season and the time of year. We generally say that a small share is sufficient for a couple and a large share is designed to feed a family of four to five. Another way of looking at it is a small share consist of smaller portions of five to seven items while a large share consist of larger portions of seven to nine items.

Why join our CSA?

Health: Eat local and organic

Food that travels fewer miles and days between harvest and consumption has a higher nutritional value. Our vegetables are fresh, certified organic and completely pesticide free!

Support local farms and economy

CSA's keep our dollars local and give community support to family farms. By sharing the risk and the harvest, members help keep farms in production and support farming as a viable family business.
