Our CSA is unique, in that most of our subscribers must come to the farm to pick up their produce. We hope that we can provide our subscribers with insight into the farm operations and create a more personal connection between the "farmers" and the "eaters". Each Wednesday or Saturday we intend to hold workshops or demos in order to provide our share holders with ideas on how to cook or preserve produce, learn about and meet the chickens, sheep, cows or other farm animals, and explore other aspects of sustainability that we have integrated into our farm operations. For those with time constraints, we do have 1 city drop off location available as well.
