Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) connects consumers to farmers. The farmers promise to do their best to grow a good mix of produce to feed the CSA, markets, and family. The CSA member commits to receiving a weekly box of fresh farm goods grown, harvested, washed and delivered by the farmers. The farmers and the customers are eating the same foods as the weeks go by, changing with the seasons and the weather. We offer a variety of options and pick up times and locations to meet your needs.

  • For 19 weeks, from mid-May until the end of September, we will provide you with a box of freshly harvested produce from our farm, generally 10-12 items. The contents vary as the seasons change and different vegetables, berries, and herbs ripen. We choose the food for the boxes, consciously selecting a good variety of the produce that we have available each week. We send out an email with the contents of the boxes, descriptions of any unusual produce, as well as recipes and cooking suggestions. This will be our 19th season providing this type of CSA share. It works well for people interested in trying new vegetables and who don't want the hassle of wrestling with market crowds. The value of the box almost always exceeds the amount paid. The cost is $675 for the 19 week season.

  • This share is a smaller version of the full share. The details above apply to this share as well, except the box will contain approximately half the produce of the full share. It is a simple way to have some seasonal produce in life, and to have a connection with a local farm in the community. The cost is $475 for the 19 week season.

  • We will provide for you both the box of produce and a flower bouquet each week for the 19 week season. The cost for the full share CSA box plus flowers is $925. The cost for the half share CSA box plus flowers is $725.

  • For 19 weeks, from mid-May until the end of September, we will provide you with a bouquet arranged with flowers from our farm. The flowers also evolve along with the season starting with the pastels of spring and finishing up with the bold colors of autumn. The cost is $350 for the 19 week season.

  • This share offers more flexibility than a traditional share. It’s more like a prepaid credit card. When you purchase a market share you have credit to use at either of our two weekly markets or at our roadside stand on the farm. You can use it to buy anything that we sell—plants, vegetables, berries, or flowers. You can use a little or a lot any time you shop with us. We will record your purchases at the markets and update your balance monthly. Or you will leave us a note at the roadside stand, on your honor, which we will enter monthly. You will receive the weekly CSA email with farm news, recipes, and contents of the boxes to keep you updated as the season passes and different produce ripens. There are 3 different options for the market share. You will receive 5% extra worth of value for paying us upfront for some of your food. For a $100 payment, you will receive credit for $105. For $200 payment, you will receive credit for $210. For a $300 payment, you will receive credit for $315.

To Join

To join our CSA, click on the sign up link. You will be led to a payment page. Check and cash are best as there is no fee. However, you can pay with Venmo, credit card, PayPal, or CashApp. Your purchase and payment in any manner is appreciated! If you need to pay in installments, please contact us and we are happy to work with you. The shares are reserved on a first come, first served basis.

The Inherent Risk

Unfortunately we have no control over mother nature. Some years we have adverse weather that affects the crops and therefore what our CSA members see in their monthly share. When a share is purchased the member accepts a risk of crop failure; however, our crop insurance is growing a large variety, so that it is unlikely for all crops to suffer during the season.

Farm Policies For Traditional Shares

  • Once you sign up for a CSA share and choose your pick-up time and place, we will make you a box to pick up there every week.

  • If you cannot pick up your share, we encourage you to have a friend or family member pick up your box, or ask us to donate it to one of our favorite food gleaning charities, Bounty and Soul and Root Cause Farm.

  • Boxes not collected Wednesday will be available to pick up from the farm cooler anytime on Thursday.

  • Boxes not collected Saturday will be available to pick up from the farm cooler anytime on Sunday

  • We ask you to return the empty boxes each week so that we can fill them again with more of our produce and leave a smaller footprint.
