What is CSA and what should I expect to receive?
CSA, Community Supported Agriculture, is a growing social and agricultural movement that encourages small farm preservation and profitability by directly linking local growers with local community members.
To become a member of our CSA, you simply purchase a weekly share of the farm produce in advance. As a member, you receive a supply of the farm’s choice produce every week during the growing and harvesting seasons. Not only will you realize overall cost savings on the freshest seasonal produce, you will also be assisting the farm with necessary start-up funds for the purchase of seeds, supplies, labor and more for the upcoming growing season.
CSA farms are good for the farmer, good for the consumer, and good for the land. A CSA membership is a win-win for our farm and your family.
