53rd St. Potager is small scale urban CSA farm. On less than 1/2 an acre my goal is support 10-15 families with seasonal fresh produce. I focus on heirloom and French varieties. For the current season I will be offering $525 for full shares and $275 for 1/2 shares 20 week CSA baskets with the occasional a la carte items. Crops included in each basket are; lettuce, spinach, kale, mustard greens, beets, peas, beans, peppers, tomatoes, potato, many fresh herbs, and more. I typically have free range chicken eggs for sale each week. Please contact me via email. Thanks for your interest and support. -Leon Johnson
