Earth Spring Farm is a vegetable farm located in Southcentral Pennsylvania. We have a 300 member CSA and sell at farmer's markets serving the greater Harrisburg and Washington DC areas. We are Certified Naturally Grown and are in the process of becoming USDA Certified Organic. Farmer Mike Nolan managed an 80 member certified organic CSA in Austin, Texas for 6 years before moving back East. I am very excited to be farming the beautiful limestone soils in central PA. My wife and I bought this farm, our first, in 2009 and we have been working to produce fresh, beautiful and organically-grown produce to our CSA members. We grow over 60 varieties of vegetables and fruit as well as shiitake and oyster mushrooms.

Workshares Wanted! Each year we have a ton of work to do on the farm. Labor costs are very high. We have developed a program for a select few who want to learn and work on the farm.
If you qualify you can come out to the farm each week and in exchange for 6 hours of work on the farm you will receive a small share of produce, 1/2 lb of organic cheese, and a quart of fruit. Email Farmer Mike for more details.
