Community Shared Agriculture (CSA)
Find us at the Market!
CSA stands for Community Shared Agriculture.
A “Farm Share” is a simple idea in which a “Member” buys a “Share” of a farmer’s harvest at the beginning of the growing season, and then comes to the market each week to pick up their “Share” of the farm’s vegetable harvest.
A Farm Share Program is both an investment and a risk for the farmer and the family who joins. Together we are sharing in the risks and rewards of farming. We face unpredictable weather, use only natural growing methods for fertility, and against insects, fungi and bacteria – methods that meet or exceed the federal government’s organically-grown standards. We take this approach because we believe the potential risks associated with chemicals, fungicides and commercial fertilizers outweigh the benefits.
