The Full Moon Farm is my health care reform bill. I never realized how bad the food sources typically are in the USA until I went to Europe. Buying daily produce in the local marketplatz is a way of life and its no wonder they have less chronic illness. According to Dr. Blaylock MD, the best thing you can do for your body is to reduce the total body burden that our systems must process due to GMO products, pesticides, synthetic fertilizers, hormones and antibiotics. We are blessed to have such conscientious farmers as the Zuckermans. This will be our third year on board and the products are excellent. Our goal is to incorporate meat products this year. Although that will be quite an expense we're hoping the quality of the product will allow us to cut down on our portions. Look forward to a great year.

OK, I'll be honest. The best thing about Full Moon Farm (for me) is their convenient downtown Burlington pickup. It's right on my way home. Sweet!
The veggies, the farmers, and the people are great too. Maybe if I have a kid someday I'll be more interested in a CSA that has more pick-your-own options, but for now the convenience of getting just picked produce can't be beat.
We've been members of Full Moon for five years I think. Rachel, Dave and the crew are great. I love to know that my food money is going local and helping a small business.

This will be our third year of participating in the Full Moon Farm CSA and our eighth year as loyal customers of the farm. Full Moon Farm offers a very wide selection of vegetables in the farm share, and it has introduced us to eating much healthier than we have in the past. We never thought we'd really like Kohlrabi, but we have fallen in love with it in our farm shares.
We also love the add-ons to the farm shares. The chickens are fantastic, as is the bread, and we're looking forward to other new items being added in the future. We'd love to be able to use the farmshare and our own garden to supply the vast majority of our food for the season.
Another reason to participate in the farm share is that the farm is run by people you can trust, and who make an impact on the community. The farmers are fantastic, personable, caring and dedicated people and we look forward to each of our pick-ups to see what everyone is up to.

We've been Full Moon Farm members for a few years now, and we love them. We love the quality and variety of the produce, and the farmers are enthusiastic, organized and knowledgeable - I learn something new every time I go pick up our veggies. We also appreciate the growing menu of additional options (organic chickens and pork, bread, apples and more).
There's something so amazing about picking up bags of delicious organic veggies and knowing that there's always something healthy and tasty in the fridge to prepare for meals. Our toddler LOVES veggies, and I credit Full Moon Farm for introducing him to vegetables as they were meant to be.
We have a small share for two adults and a toddler, and it's generally the perfect amount of veggies for us each week.
We treasure this delicious, nutritious way to support our farmer friends, our community and our soil!

We particpated in the CSA in 2009 (including the Winter Share) and were very happy. The quality, variety and quantity of food was very good, especially in such a cool, wet year.
David, Rachael and their crew provided friendly, reliable service and proved to be very approachable as to feedback and ideas on how to make the CSA even better.
We highly recommend Full Moon.

I participated in the Full Moon CSA during the 2008 season. It was an excellent experience! The variety, quantity and quality of everything they offered was excellent.
It was well organized, reliable and a great value, not to mention a fabulous way to support local businesses/farmers. I highly recommend this to anyone interested in joining a CSA. I will definitely be a member next year as well.
