Listing last updated on Jan 21, 2025

This Summer we are offering a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) from our farm! This is a great opportunity for you to have 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 $3.50 per pound weekly. This would exclude some things such as melons and sweetcorn. Once you get your packet filled out, send it back to us and the deliveries start when the produce in season is ready for harvest. We are aiming for deliveries/pickups to begin in the beginning 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 choose to either pick up your weekly produce at our farm for no additional charge. (Great way to spend the afternoon!) Or, we will deliver your produce to your doorstep for a weekly $2.50 charge if you live outside of the Madrid area. This is especially handy for those with busy schedules. (We know all about the busy schedule life style). If you have a group of 3 or more members for one drop off site, the delivery fee will be waived.

Wednesday will be the day we have your produce ready for delivery or pickup. Any time after 12 noon for pick up, delivery times will be in the afternoon/early evening.


What happens if I won’t be home for your delivery time?
No worries! Just leave a cooler out with an ice pack, and we will leave your produce in there for you. If you’re going to be out of town for awhile, just let us know and we will resume your deliveries or pickups when you get home.

Since we are a family operation, we have a whole host of other goods you can choose from on a weekly basis if you choose. Those items are listed on another page of the new member packet. We just ask for those things, you let us know by the Monday prior to your Wednesday delivery or pickup.

Every week we will have a weekly special item that will be offered, more to come on that when we get closer to the start of our season!

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!
