Community Supported Agriculture shortens the distance from farm to table. CSA members pay in full before the season begins. From June - November they pick up an abundance of fresh food right on the farm where it was grown. With a secure market for the harvest, farmers get to focus on growing the healthiest, most delicious food while caring for the land. CSA shares offer a balance of different types of veggies including roots, greens, alliums, and fruiting crops. The contents vary from season to season. Members always get extra of whatever veggies respond best to the season's weather and may get less of those that responded poorly.
Why join? TASTE Fresh is more delicious and local marketing allows us to choose varieties based on flavor rather than shipping durability. HEALTH A share represents a colorful dose of vitamins and minerals. COMMUNITY Get to know your farmer and fellow veggie-lovers. SUSTAINABILITY We use compost, cover crops and diversity rather than chemicals. ACCOUNTABILITY Quality, ecology, and labor issues are all transparent. A huge contrast to the anonymous food we buy at the grocery store. LEARNING Learn how to store and enjoy your fresh veggies. Read updates about how the food was grown. VALUE Most weeks members receive at least 10% more organic produce than the same money could buy at a farmers market.
