Most of our members didn’t know their farmer before joining our CSA. But now they love knowing their farmer.


When you know your farmer, you know where your food comes from. This means you can trust that it is grown and harvested with love, care and attention.

Farmer Joe grows food because he loves feeding his local community. He is passionate about growing the most delicious organic produce around and sharing it at local farmers markets and in our CSA farm box.

When you sign up for a farm box, you become a member of our farm. Membership comes with the benefit of receiving your farm box full of freshly harvested organic produce. You will also have access to all of the add-on items available to members in our online store.

You will be able to pick up your farm box at a nearby pickup site, or have it delivered if you live in one of our delivery areas.

Then it’s time to chop into your fresh produce and blow your taste buds away!

Quality matters! The produce in our farm box has been grown with flavor and nutrition in mind. They are harvested just before delivery, which means the flavor and nutrition are intact when your box arrives.

CSA stands for “Community Supported Agriculture.” Customers become members of the farm by pre-purchasing their share of the harvest. As the crops are harvested, members get a weekly farm box, containing organic produce.

When you pop open your box you will find freshly picked and packed organic goodness straight from the fields.

Our large box contains 11 items per week, our small box contains 7 items – a mix of staples and more seasonal items. The box contents depend on what is coming into harvest at the moment, so you get to eat with the seasons.

Harvest times are subject to weather conditions and change from year to year. But if you would like an idea of what will be in the box when, download our harvest calendar.

While selecting your farm box size and frequency (weekly or bi-weekly), you’ll be asked to select a pick up site. All of our farmers market stands are pick up sites. Additionally, we have pick up sites at stores and private residences. Pickups are available all days except Monday and Friday.

Farmers Markets with pick up sites (you can trade out up to 2 items when picking up at a farmers market).
