Portage River Farm

I joined the Portage River Farm CSA in 2011 and have been very impressed with the owners, John and Janet Adelman. Although they only started their CSA in 2009, and they do not have the organic designation, they do farm organically and are very knowledgeable about and committed to organic principles. It is obvious that a lot of research and preparation was done before beginning their venture.

The produce I have received, as well as the eggs, honey and maple syrup have been very high quality and tasty. The Adelmans also organize member social events like a maple sugaring party, taffy pulling party, ice skating party etc. Farm meetings allow for input from members regarding priorities for the farm.

Finally, John and Janet are just friendly, genuine people with a work ethic that others could emulate. I am confident that Portage River Farm will continue to grow and prosper under their direction.
