First A Thank You
We want to thank you for choosing us to be you farmers this season. We know many of you have been with us since our farm beginning and have supported our farm in ways that have helped us grow, invest and expand. Knowing you, the foods you and your families love, your challenges and successes (and you knowing the same of us!) is one of the things we most value about CSA.
You may have joined our CSA because you love vegetables, were committing to your health or wanted a better eating experience. We also know that many of your chose us for other big reasons like wanting to support a farm which was rooted in ecology or a farm that pays its farm workers (and ourselves) a living wage. While we can’t solve all the worlds problems we see farming as a way to deeply engage and support a community food system, to provide good food to all regardless of income, and to role model and improve organic farming systems that are better for the environment. Being in our CSA supports those missions too.
Remarkably 2023 has been our best farming season. I have said this same thing for the past 4 years but each year has in fact been better using many measures. We weathered the drought this year without impact on most crops because we were prepared with a new well, a great returning farm team and also because we has the support and obligation of our CSA member. Thank you for allowing us to do what we love, to stock your kitchens and to be part of your life and health!

New/Updated Things This Season
- We are sticking with our earlier sign up this season – By moving to an earlier sign up for current members with deposit we feel like we are balancing our farms need to fill our CSA spots in fall (since we order seed and do our major planning before the New Year) while making the main payment due after the New Year as November and December are often times many families have the most strain on their budgets. This early sign up also helps our members who need financial assistance get into the partner shares program earlier!
- Shorter Summer Season but a longer Fall Season – We are shortening our summer season to 18 weeks but making the fall CSA 6 weeks so that fall and spring shares are the same length. Our spring share will remain the same in 2023 and we still have our Choose 10 share (and even added a Choose 20 share to give better value to those who want to receive more boxes throughout the year!)
- The Full Season Share is the BEST VALUE per week with the cost of 3 weeks provided for free (30 weeks of delivery at the price of 27 weeks).
