What is a Farm Share or CSA Program?

Like a veggie subscription service, members of a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) Program get produce straight from their local farmers for a predetermined amount of time.

Where does the food come from?

The Farm Share is a collaborative effort. We work with local farmers to aggregate a wide variety of responsibly grown, local fruits and vegetables. Working together allows us to:

  1. Increase variety
  2. Increase our number of available shares
  3. Support local, sustainable agriculture – Our program generates ~$250,000 in revenue each year for local farmers

Should I get a weekly share or bi-weekly share?

Weekly Shares: You pick up every week. This is designed for 3-4 people.
Bi-weekly Shares: You pick up every other week. This is designed for 1-2 people who are new to the program.

How will I know what I’m going to get?

You will receive an email every week letting you know what will be in the share. This will include farmer info, recipes, nutrition information, and more! 

Register for fresh local seasonal vegetables and fruits!

Our registration process has changed a bit! Check out our new payment options at your desired location.
