Minka Farm, LLC

We have really enjoyed our CSA with Minka Farms. We did the summer share and continued with the fall share because we loved the food and the experience. We've always had plenty of food, and it seems like we got much more value than the price paid. I liked the $ amount each week so that we had some flexibility to add or swap when quantities permitted. It wasn't just "here's your box, see you later."

Kim got to know our faces and names, knew what people liked, sent out weekly emails to tell us what we were getting in our harvest, shared recipes with the members, and overall made it a very friendly, "member" experience for us. We definitely felt invested in what the farm was doing, how the crops fared with bugs and heat, etc. The smaller number of total shares was perfect for us as CSA first-timers to really get involved in what we were eating.

The food itself - great quality, good variety, plentiful shares, convenient pickup. We have loved the challenge of making sure we cooked/ate everything we received for a week. If you're not sure about the size, split it with friends. For our share, we split it with two other adults (4 total) and it was perfect.
