The helping your neighbor CSA will be starting again this season. This program is to give $20 per week of LTF produce to those who can’t afford to buy it themselves. To sponsor someone for 5 weeks of food for them, send me $100 per person you want to sponsor. I will then let them know that they can pick up $20 of food here at the farm for 5 weeks. A the end of the 5 weeks you can responsor that family, if you choose. Sponsors will be anonymous as will the receiving family.

Explore The Benefits of CSA

Community Supported Agriculture has so much to offer!

Better-tasting, nutrient-rich, fresh produce

WHY?

Fruits and vegetables can be picked at their prime. This means your produce isn't over-ripening during processing, packaging and transit

Environmentally friendly organic farming

WHY?

Chemical-free produce means no groundwater pollution from pesticides and fertilizers, which means better drinking water

New varieties chain grocers don't stock

WHY?

Unlike industrial agriculture, local farms have the flexibility to grow hard-to-find heirloom varieties. This means you get to discover new crops and find new favorites!

So many advantages to participating in Community Supported Agriculture...

... AND THERE'S MORE!
