We've been
offering CSA shares for the past two seasons and will be doing it again this
year.
Each week,
from June to October (20 weeks), CSA members pick up a box of produce grown at
the farm (sometimes supplemented by produce grown at one of our sister local
organic farms like Green Tractor and Synergia Organics).
Being part of our CSA means
engaging in the rejuvenation and strengthening of truly local agriculture, and
becoming more indigenous by eating food
grown with your involvement, your caring and your prayers.
In offering a CSA, our
intent goes well beyond providing people with the freshest and most nutritious
food. We want to offer an opportunity for CSA members to genuinely get
acquainted with the farm, the farmers (and the chickens) who grow their food.
Our CSA offers the opportunity for you to reconnect with the rhythms of
nature by eating produce when it is in season. We
also offer individuals who join our CSA an opportunity to reunite with the Earth and
community in a meaningful way, while often rekindling a quality of spiritual
nourishment they may have been missing.
Joining our CSA comes with
a requirement to participate in the life of the farm so as to develop an
intimate connection with the source of your food as
well as your community.
We are passionate about what we do and how we do
it. We make our own compost and potting soil. We use Biodynamic
principles and make some of our own Biodynamic preparations. We pamper our
plants and cherish our soil.
What we offer is priceless
and our true joy stems from the circle of relationships we create around the
farm, and the opportunity we offer for families and children to come visit the
farm and soak up the energy emanating from a piece of land stewarded with love
and in community.
Each year we
offer 20-25 CSA shares and give priority to families with children.
If interested in joining
our CSA, we want you to seriously consider whether you can or truly want to
contribute to the life of the farm by donating at least 2-3 hours a
month. The quality of your presence is what matters. We always have
plenty of things for you to do, from very simple such as cleaning a kitchen or
sorting plants to harder, more physically demanding work if you need the exercise! If you have children, by all means bring them to the farm to play in the dirt.
If interested in joining
our 2015 CSA, please request an application here.
We look forward to growing nourishing food for our community.
