18 weeks of ecological, human-scale veggies & herbs thoughtfully hand-tended for the fullest flavor & nutrition.
Each week you will receive the culinary veggies and herbs that are at their peak of abundance, flavor, and beauty on the farm. We grow a wide diversity of crops ensuring there is a well-rounded variety of the freshest seasonal greens, roots, and speciality items that make cooking exciting, simple, and easy - let the high-quality ingredients speak for themselves.
You have the flexibility to choose 6-8 veggies and herbs weekly at pickup. depending on the point in the growing season, there may be well over a dozen different veggies and herbs to choose from.
We want you to go home with vibrant food and we want to keep our precious soil, so we put lots of care into pre-cleaning all items for you. Feel welcome to give them a wash when you get home, too.
In addition, you will receive a digital CSA member handbook with a list of veggies and herbs to expect and tips for storing and cooking your veggies and herbs to make the most of your farm share. Plus, you will receive a weekly newsletter with ruminations, stories, photos, and cooking inspiration from the farm.

We like to say: If the Farm is a poem, the soil is the poet. Our practices involve no-till, mulch, compost, cover crops, crop rotation, intercropping and companion planting.
We grow food on a human scale, 1/2 acre of bed area, without dependence on fossil-fuel driven equipment. We are empowered by the strength of our hands and bodies. Our direct, intimate working of the land exemplifies craft, care and attention to detail that yields exceptional quality produce and stewardship of the land.
We never use chemical pesticides or synthetic fertilizers on our farm. Ever.
