Community Supported Agriculture

 

CSA stands for Community Supported Agriculture. It is one of the most direct connections with the farm that is producing your food. It is also a way the consumers share both the risks and joys of farming. For an upfront fee, members become seasonal shareholders in the farm harvest.

When you become a member of a CSA you commit yourself to support a farmer for a season by helping to pay for seed, soil amendments, and growing supplies. In return, the farmer will provide you with a variety of fresh, high-quality products throughout the growing season.

CSA Packages

 

Our CSA program offers two kinds of baskets for you to choose:

VEGAN.

Healthy, vitamin concentrated fresh veggies plus fruits. The price for one share is $30 per week.

VEGETARIAN.

Healthy, vitamin concentrated fresh veggies, fruits plus free-range eggs. The price for one share is $35 per week.

Our 2020 CSA season runs from May to November, and for a weekly pick-up, each bag will be about a half bushel to a bushel in size with fresh vegetables and fruits, and extra items when we have an abundant season production.

We are flexible to accommodate your needs and we will make it easy for you to choose the months you would like to receive your CSA share.
