     A CSA is a subscription program consisting of a weekly delivery to a regional pick-up point of fresh, Certified Naturally Grown produce that comes from our farm directly to you!


What are the Benefits?

  • You will receive share boxes for 25 weeks of fresh, Certified Naturally Grown, high quality, cleaned produce.
  • Eating with the seasons is healthy and fun!
  • When you compare our CSA price with the cost of buying Organic at the store, if will be clear that you are saving money! Plus, you can't find vegetables this fresh and nutritious in any store! The vegetables you receive from the CSA didn't spend weeks in transit coming from across the country or the world.
  • Reconnect with your precious, essential food chain. Through annual farm events and tours, you can see where and how the food you feed your family is being grown. Get to know the people who raise your food!
  • Exposure to new vegetables and recipes. Get out of the same old, same old dinner rut with new kinds of vegetables and diverse varieties of the old standards ( when was the last time you had lemon cucumbers or mache?). We will be sharing recipes and serving suggestions from our weekly farm blog.
  • Significantly reduce your carbon footprint by eating locally.

Sample of CSA bags

  We take great care to process and clean what we harvest from the fields. Please visit our produce availability page for samples of what will be available during the year.

  Workshares?

     We will be happy to discuss this on a case by case basis for those who enjoy some hard work.


Splitting Shares?
    
     Feel free to split a share with someone! But if there is only one melon that week, y'all have to work it out amongst yourselves. No fighting please!

Traveling?

     If you are traveling during the growing season for a week or two, a friend or family member can pick-up your share and enjoy. Or we can donate it to a food bank. If you travel frequently during the farming season, you may want to consider a farmers market credit instead.


Buying in Bulk?

     Please contact us if you are interested in buying in bulk amounts at a lower cost for canning and freezing. We will be happy to accomodate you.


SHARE THE BOUNTY!

    If a share is not picked up or you are away for the pick-up day, we always donate that share to an older woman in Buckingham County who would not be able to afford a CSA share on her own. It is never wasted!
