buy why?
Joining our CSA is a great way to support our farm. As a new farm, we’re investing heavily in tools and equipment for our business, along with paying for all the general costs of farming. Your support through the CSA helps us during this difficult startup period and offers us stable income to grow our business into the future.
​
​You’d be supporting our honest stewardship of the land, keeping your money in your community, and giving job security and fair pay to our workers. Plus, you’ll be sure to get the first pick of our crop!
​
If you're looking for an adventurous CSA, this is not your bag (unless you find potatoes adventurous). Our shares offer staples that you know you’ll always eat and wont die in your produce drawer.

This program is brand new, and we're still working out some of the details. If you've got any questions, email us here. We'll keep you posted as we get things figured out.

the nitty gritty
When you join our CSA program, you pay up-front at the beginning of the season and then receive a weekly box of seasonal vegetables (called shares) fresh from the farm each week. The shares will include 8 to 10 items. There will be less diversity of items in the early Summer, when fewer vegetables are ready to harvest, and more in late Summer & Fall, when there’s a greater number of vegetables available. The price of the vegetables in a share is lower than what you would pay buying the vegetables at market, so the CSA is a better value.
See below for pickup days and locations. The CSA will run for 24 weeks, starting June 13th and ending November 21st (the last day for a Bi-Weekly share will be November 14th).
​
We are excited to work with Groundbreaker Brewing, who is offering their space as a pickup location. When you pickup your share with them on Thursdays, you will receive $1 off pints in house, or $2 off to-go packs. See below for more information about pickup times and days. ​

Worried you won’t get what you like or you’ll get too much of something?
Upon signup for the CSA, you’ll have the option to complete a survey about what vegetables your household eats and how frequently you eat them. This will give us a better sense of our member’s eating habits and what the staple vegetables are in their household.
Think cilantro tastes like soap?
In the survey, each CSA household will have the option to designate two “never” items. The vegetables chosen will never be included in your box share. Are you veggie flexible and like surprises? If a member household opts to not fill out a survey, weekly box items will be chosen by the farm.
