2019 CSA Shares NOW AVAILABLE!
Read below to find out more about our program and how you can become a member.
Why Community Supported Agriculture?
You are what you eat eats! Knowing where your food comes from is one of the best ways to secure good health. If you are interested in cooking at home with a weekly variety of fresh, local, nutritious produce then look no further! Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) programs foster a mutually beneficial relationship between farmer and consumer. You will have the opportunity to chat with your farmers each week, the ones that grow your food specifically for YOU, and will feel good knowing exactly what you are putting into your body. CSA programs keep more of your food dollars within the local economy and it's the best investment you can make in your health, and the health of your community. Members pay an upfront cost which allows the farmers to purchase seeds, materials, and other things necessary for the growing season. In return, members receive a weekly abundance of fresh produce, harvested from the field that very same day. For those interested in eating a variety of fresh, local, organically produced fruits and veggies each week- it doesn't get much better than this!
