Become a member of a local CSA farm!


Our local farmers need your support all year long. You can help them and help yourself by selecting a CSA now, before shares sell out.

What is a CSA?
A CSA, (for Community Supported Agriculture) is a way for the food buying public to create a relationship with a farm and to receive a weekly basket of produce. By making a financial commitment to a farm, people become "members" (or "shareholders," or "subscribers") of the CSA.
Each CSA farm has its own unique character: shares vary in price, pick-up days & times, vegetables grown, you-pick options, etc.
Some CSAs also require that members work a small number of hours on the farm during the growing season.
