What is a CSA?

CSA stands for “Community Supported Agriculture.” It is a participatory concept that has been popularized by individuals seeking to get the freshest food, get to know the people who grow the food they eat, and support their local farmer.

A CSA share is more than just a purchase, it’s in investment in us. Placing the cost upfront helps us cover our costs to grow the produce you will be enjoying! Securing your CSA share in March or April will help us have enough capital to purchase seeds, tools, supplies, and other essentials needed to ensure a bountiful harvest come June.

How does it work?

We’ve developed a flexible, market style CSA to give our members more control and autonomy. This means that instead of receiving a weekly box curated by us, you’ll have the chance to select the produce you want for the week, every week. Pay once in the beginning of the season for the number of weeks you want, and use your credit until it runs out.

There’s no weekly minimum or limit on how much credit you may use each week, and if you feel like you need to take a week off, your balance remains the same.

Our season starts on June 19th, but shares are available now!

  Share Options 2023  
Full Share 20 weeks $600
Half Share 10 weeks $300
