Peacework Organic Farm grows 70 crops, over 200 varieties, providing shares for households within half an hour's drive of the farm in Wayne County and Ontario County, New York. We also supply the shares for the Genesee Valley Organic CSA in Rochester, New York. GVOCSA members pick up their shares at the Abundance Cooperative Market, 62 Marshall St., Rochester. For each GVOCSA share, we ask members to work 3 four-hour shifts at the farm and 2 two-and-a-half hour shifts on distribution at the coop, or to be a member of the core group, which administers the CSA. Local members do 3 four-hour shifts of farm work and form area groups to share pick up so that everyone does not need to drive to the farm every week.

Preserving Peacework Campaign: the Genesee Land Trust purchased the 148 acre farm on which Peacework rented 18 acres, and leases the farm back to Peacework with a 25-year rolling lease that keeps the farm affordable to future farmers. People who would like to make similar arrangements with land trusts are welcome to contact us for a copy of the lease. Equity Trust and the EF Schumacher Foundation provide technical assistance for people seeking alternatives to private ownership of farmland
