This Summer we are offering a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) from our farm! This is a great opportunity for you to have chemical free fresh vegetables and homemade items weekly for you and your family.
How does our CSA work?
To get started with our CSA, request a new member packet by text or call 515-795-6757 or email truen.sophia.olson@gmail.com. In the new member packet you will receive a sheet of vegetables we plan on producing this summer. From that list, you choose what you would like to receive in the coming months as the vegetables become ready for harvest. There is $65 one time membership fee and then the produce is $3.00 per pound weekly. This would exclude some things such as melons and sweetcorn for example.. Once you get your packet filled out, send it back to us and the weekly boxes start when the produce in season is ready for harvest. We are aiming for pickups to begin in the middle of May. We try to get the early crop in as soon as we possibly can, but we are at the mercy of Mother Nature. These vegetables include things like radishes, green onions, lettuce, etc. that like the cooler temperatures.
You can pick up your weekly produce at our farm on Wednesday afternoons.
(Great way to spend the afternoon!)
You can pick up your box at the Beaverdale, Waukee, or Grimes Farmer’s Market at our stand.
OR
You can have home delivery on Wednesdays around noon. If you won’t be home, simply leave a cooler on your porch and I will drop your goodies off.
If this is something you would be interested in, give us a call or shoot me an email, we will be in contact to answer any questions you might have!
Here’s to warm weather and fresh veggies!

I grow our produce without the use of pesticides, herbicides or fungicides. Instead, I have implemented companion planting and mulching of organic matter and other natural ways to manage fresh, safe to eat produce.
Our meats are also raised without the use of antibiotics or hormones. They live in fresh air with plenty of sunshine and enjoy a diet of pasture, hay raised on our farm and non-GMO corn.
