Abbe Hills Garden is a CSA farm serving over 100 families in Mt. Vernon, Lisbon, and the Cedar Rapids/Marion area. We offer a wide variety of vegetables from the first week of June until Halloween, plus a mid-summer farm open house and a fall harvest festival. We use a number of low-input and sustainable practices, including compost, cover crops, beneficial insects, and integrated pest management tools to produce tasty, healthy, safe food for our shareholders. The farm also produces an heirloom variety of open-pollinated corn for seed, plus soybeans, oats, and hay. Soil conservation and water quality improvement are practiced over the entire 72-acre farm. CSA customers pick up their shares on either Mondays or Thursdays, late in the afternoon. Everyone is welcome to visit the farm and to participate in the CSA. Call Laura for more information.
