FAQS
What is a CSA?
CSA stands for Community Supported Agriculture. It's a business/farming model where the consumer has a part in the success of the farm. The customer becomes a member of the CSA. The membership fee paid up front helps cover the costs of running the farm: seeds, plants, saplings, labor, fuel, etc. In return, the member gets a weekly box of the harvest share at a discounted price for the 30 weeks of harvest.
How much does it cost to become a member?
Membership costs $1200 if joining in May. That comes out to $40/week for the 30 weeks of fresh produce. Cost is prorated with a coupon code when joining after the start. Considering the cost of conventional produce, this is a great deal--Local, sustainably, and regeneratively farmed produce. (There is a processing fee if you choose to pay online with a card--You can also mail in a check (or cash) with your application to the farm address, or make arrangements to drop off your application (please text/email to schedule a time))
I want to Join, but it's already started, do you offer a pro-rated rate?
Yes! If you want to pay in full, we offer coupon codes pro-rated to correlate with the Saturday you will first pick up. Each coupon code is only valid for that specific week. Find the date below when you will pick up your first share, and enter that coupon code upon checkout.

Yes! Our affordable subscription model offers everyone an opportunity to enjoy the benefits of the CSA. You pay a $100 monthly subscription throughout the year. This allows you to reap all the rewards of the 30-week CSA, while also covering some of our off-season expenses. There is a one-time $100 set-up fee.
What do I do if I can't make it one week due to vacation, etc. ?
Feel free to give your box to a friend or family member for that week so that they can come pick it up and enjoy the produce.
