Are you looking to deepen your connection with your food while supporting local farmers? Community Supported Agriculture, or CSA, might be just what you're searching for! Read on to explore everything you need to know about CSAs to help you make an informed decision.

What is CSA?

CSA (short for Community Supported Agriculture) is like a subscription to the freshest, most flavorful food your local farm has to offer! When you become a CSA member, you invest in the farm.

How Does it Work?

Once you've signed up for your share, you'll receive a variety of fresh, locally grown food throughout the season. Pick your size share, wait until Friday night to start customizing your share, you have 48hrs to do this.  We curate your box on Monday/Tuesday and you can pick it up or have it delivered to your doorstep on Tuesday!

What are the Benefits of Joining a CSA? CSA is about more than just food! 

• Fresh, Seasonal Produce: Each produce box is a celebration of the season, filled with farm-fresh food that's carefully grown, harvested, and packed by your farmer right before it gets to your table. 

  
  

• Support for Local Farmers: When you join a CSA, you’re also building a partnership with your local farmer, providing financial stability ahead of the growing season and keeping your food dollars local.

  
  

• Connection to the Land: Becoming a CSA member offers an opportunity to learn the story behind your food, who grows it, and how. Many farmers invite members to visit the farm, participate in harvest events, or volunteer!

  
  

• Environmental Impact: Supporting local agriculture reduces the carbon footprint associated with food transportation and supports environmentally friendly farming practices that prioritize soil health and biodiversity.

  
  

• Building Community: CSAs foster connections between consumers and farmers, creating a sense of community around food and farming.

What Can I Expect in My CSA Share?

CSA shares vary depending on the farm's offerings and the time of year, but you can typically expect a wide variety of seasonal produce. In the spring, your share might include greens, radishes, and strawberries, while summer shares might feature tomatoes, peppers, and melons. Fall shares often include hearty root vegetables, squash, and apples, while winter shares may include storage crops like potatoes, onions, and carrots. Many CSA farms also provide newsletters or recipe suggestions to help you make the most of your share each week!

With your CSA membership, you're saying YES to delicious fresh food, thriving local farmers, and a stronger connection to where your food comes from!
