What's a CSA?
A CSA is an agreement between the eater and the farmer. When you purchase a CSA share, your farmer makes a commitment to you to do our very best to provide exquisitely flavourful, fresh, organic veggies during the CSA season (late June-Thanksgiving). In return, you make a commitment to the farm to purchase your produce in advance of the season. We share the risks of an adverse season, and also share the rewards of a bountiful one.
Why would I want a CSA?
You love and appreciate super fresh, fantastically delicious veggies!
To feel the satisfaction that comes from supporting a local business and your local food infrastructure. The financial commitment you make in advance of the season helps the farm pay for seeds, supplies and labour before there is a harvest coming out of the field.
Know your farmer, know your food. There are opportunities to become part of the farm community. Come to the farm for a tour and/or participate in volunteer days.
For those of you choosing a Harvest Share, an informative email newsletter comes in advance of your weekly Harvest Share bringing news of the farm and telling you what’s in the box, how to prepare the produce for the fridge so it lasts as long as possible, and a recipe featuring some of that week’s haul.
