The Farm at Kraut Run markets its produce directly to customers through a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) subscription program. Community Supported Agriculture consists of a community of individuals who pledge support to a farming operation where the growers and consumers share the risks and benefits of food production. The members purchase a subscription at the beginning of the season which pays for the farms operating expenses, in turn, receiving a weekly share of the farms harvest. Community Supported Agriculture is not about cheap food, which is usually neither nourishing nor grown with care of the environment in mind. CSA is about each of us being responsible for the food we eat, the farmers that grow it, and the community around us.

2014 CSA

Our CSA program begins the first week of May and runs for 22 weeks. Depending on conditions, the weeks may not be consecutive.

Each weekly share contains a variety of 8-12 vegetables, fruits and herbs.

In most cases, our produce is harvested, washed, and chilled within 24 hours prior to packing. The produce is then packed in boxes and refrigerated on the scheduled pick up day. You cannot find produce this fresh at the grocery store!

Subscription memberships cost $990.00 per season.

We are not currently offering half subscriptions. Consider splitting a subscription with another family.

Our farm is managed using sustainable organic growing practices and most work is done by hand in order to minimize our ecological footprint.

We grow over 100 different varieties of vegetables primarily from heirloom seeds purchased from small, sustainable farm co-ops.
