The organic pumpkins and gourds are so great. Our toddler enjoyed the small straw bale maze, so much we will have to come back again soon! And allowing her to pick her own pumpkin without a knife and then pulling it back in a wagon is priceless. Thank you for the great experience and memories.

2012 was our first year to join a CSA, and Isabelle Farm's CSA made it a joy! It ended last month and we are in withdrawal from getting glorious greens and fantastic veggies. Next year we are planning on joining the fruit share. I highly recommend it! Plus, we live just south of the Lafayette farm stand, so it was very convenient for us.

For months we had been eagerly anticipating our first CSA Farm Share from Isabelle Farms. At the beginning of the week we received the informative "Field Notes" newsletter complete with recipes and tips. The day for pick-up finally arrived on Thursday and I loved the "market style" arrangement that made it so quick and easy to pick up our share. I excitedly rushed home to prepare the Garlicky Greens recipe provided in the newsletter using the Spinach, Collard Greens and Garlic Scapes I selected. I have rarely tasted anything so wonderfully fresh and delicious as that mixture and the entire family raved about how scrumptious it was! We want to express our gratitude to all the employees of Isabelle Farm for their hard work in growing these beautiful vegetables and feel blessed that we are a part of their community. I feel healthier already and now know what I have been missing my whole life only eating grocery store produce! We cannot wait for next weeks share!

We've been a member of several CSA's over the past few years and this season was our best experience yet with Isabelle Farm! The weekly shares were organized, abundant and had a great variety. The folks from the farm were fun, friendly and always willing to give out ideas and recipes for the veggies-of-the-week. We really enjoyed the weekly newsletter that was emailed to us a few days before the pick up so we knew what to expect and what was happening on the farm. It gave us a great sense of community and good insite into the day to day farm activities.

I highly recommend the Isabelle Farm CSA and many thanks to all the hard-working folks at Isabelle for a great season!

This was our first year as part of the Isabelle Farm CSA program. What a sense of community. The staff and owners are wonderful, it's a big family feeling! Special events, farm dinners, etc were the highlight for me. It was a full circle moment interacting with the people who grew your food from seed to harvest. My kids thought it was really cool and found new vegetable favorites they'd never tried before.

We just loved our CSA share at Isabelle Farm! It was a major highlight of our summer. There was always a variety of produce, and all of it was delicious! Knowing that the food was fresh, local, and organic made it so much more pleasurable to eat, but what really made it incredible was knowing the people who grew it. From our first inquiries about a share, the folks at Isabelle Farm really made an effort to establish a relationship with us. This continued throughout the growing season with a farm tour, newsletters that included staff bios and fun facts about the food, and weekly conversation when we came to pick up our veggies. As someone else noted, they were also very accommodating when it came to my food allergies. It was wonderful all-around to participate in their CSA!

This is a lovely farm, I can't wait to go back next year!

I chose Isabelle initially because it's close to my house, but it was more than I had hoped for. Each person at the stand was personable and warm. They made it really easy to be a member, whether I was in a hurry, or if I took my time and stuck around to shoot the breeze.

They are also really accommodating: I have a corn allergy, and whenever there was corn in the share, they always let me exchange it for something else. Instead of my allergy feeling like a complication, as it usually does, it was no problem here. Pretty priceless!

This was my first time getting a CSA. Isabelle farm was great! There was a lot of variety in what we got from week to week, and there was always a lot...especially towards the end of the summer. On top of all the great produce, everyone at Isabelle was incredibly friendly and fun to talk to. They definately made my first CSA experience great, and I plan to purchase a CSA next year with Isabelle.

This year is actually our first time doing a CSA and we've been loving it. Fresh produce, amazing quality. We even receive a newsletter every week with recipes, tips and story about the farm. We really feel that we are part of the "family". It is more than just getting fresh veggies every week!

We found this farm after a dissapointing CSA experience last year. Isabelle Farm has been FANTASTIC!! The produce is always fantastic and the customer service is wonderful. As a CSA member we have always felt like a priority and it's so nice to be greeted by name every time we come to pick up our share. The farm stand is awesome also! I would very highly recommend Isabelle Farm to anyone looking for a wonderful CSA!

As a local Chef and THE unofficial Chef for the Longmont Farmer's Market I have been to my share of farms. It's my job to know what is in season and who is growing it. Isabelle Farms is my one of my "go to" growers for almost everything. It's a beautiful farm, run by friendly people who are passionate about growing organic produce. Stop by their farms stand, Say hi to Ben (CSA & Field Manager) and be sure to ask what kind of amazing produce you can expect on your next visit!

Thanks, Jason, Natalie and Ben...I really appreciate all your help with the LFM Market this season, you always make me look great!
