fresh is best
Get the freshest produce straight from the farm for 20 weeks with the option to fully customize your share every week.
CSA is the little engine at the heart of our farm. Our CSA members get the best of what our fields have to give. What we offer is more than just vegetables.
Full shares = $675 ($33.75 per week)
Large shares = $775 ($38.75 per week)
Our CSA is free-choice: you have the ability to customize your share every week based on what is available from the harvest. Which means more of what your family will use and less of what you won’t.
What you get in our CSA:
A weekly spread of 10+ freshly harvested, certified organic, vibrant vegetables to choose from. Our harvest list varies week to week and is made up of the vegetables that are at their peak for quality and flavor in the field.
A weekly newsletter with notes from the field, photos, recipes, and tips for food storage + processing, plus our encouragement and some inspiration to try the less common vegetables offered that week.
An investment in young farmers and local agriculture. When you join our CSA, you become part of our farm community that believes in being good stewards of the land, maintaining open and working landscapes, building healthy soil, and sustainable farming. Your dollars are being put to work building your local foodshed.

What is Community Supported Agriculture?
CSA is a mutualistic model meant to support both grower + eater. The CSA is a commitment to support the farm over the growing season: it provides both much needed financial support early in the year and consistent, weekly availability of the freshest produce available. Due to the nature of CSA, members receive a higher value for their dollars spent than at a grocery store — meaning more veggies + higher quality!
How does the CSA work?
CSAs are distributed once per week for 20 weeks beginning in June. We harvest each item fresh, based on when it’s at peak for flavor and quality. When you sign up, you will have the choice of several pick-up locations and their corresponding time frames. Each week, you will choose your produce based on the item count that corresponds with your share size from our market-style set up.

We offer these options:
YARMOUTH / THURSDAYS, 3:30-5:30 or SATURDAYS, 10:30-11:30 @ Maggie Mae’s: 374 US Rt. 1

What’s in the share?
We grow over 60 varieties of vegetables, plus flowers and herbs on our 1.5 acre farm. We plan for a wide variety throughout the year, which shifts as different crops come in/out of their peak seasons. You can expect to see several options for greens every week, an allium, a root, plus seasonal specialties like sugar snap peas, tomatoes, peppers, and squash as each crop comes into its own harvest season.
