r meat is available seasonally and selections will vary depending on the animals being raised at any given time.

Drumlin Farm CSA: The Drumlin Farm CSA program provides vegetables to 165 families in both summer and winter. Rather than needing to buy food that has been extensively processed and shipped to supermarkets from all over the world, members enjoy vegetables grown near home and, in the case of the winter CSA, preserved in a traditional manner in our root cellar. The choice not only benefits the environment by reducing energy spent on food transport, but also improves our health and quality of life by increasing our intake of naturally grown vegetables.
