Sidewalk Ends Farm CSA

Sidewalk Ends Farm was founded in the spring of 2011 as a 5000-square foot urban farm in Providence�s Armory Park neighborhood. Once a vacant lot, the farm has become a hub of food production, beauty, and community education. We sell our chemical-free produce at the Armory Farmers Market (a mixed-income market around the corner from the farm) and to our neighbors through a CSA. We also provide produce to local restaurants as a member of the Little City Growers Co-op, an urban and peri-urban direct marketing cooperative. While our headquarters on Harrison St. remains a home base for our CSA pick-up and educational programs, the major crop production now happens outside the city; in 2014 we expanded our operation onto two acres in Seekonk, MA. This additional space allows us to try out new crops and practices, and grow a greater quantity of the varietals we know well. Community education is an important part of our work. Our neighbors are important to us, not only because many of them are our CSA members! We teach workshops, at our farm and around town, on seed starting, soil remediation, and urban homesteading. We host visitors throughout the season, from college classes, to kindergartners, to our neighbors and their children. And we know that our city hens are the most popular girls on the block!
