Are you new to the farm share/CSA (Community supported Agriculture)? In a hard and important nutshell, a farm share program is meant to help community members and farmers connect with direct sales (no middleman). Giving both the customers and farmers peace of mind that their food/crops will be received/sold. Theres no BS, each year the members tour the farm on a designated date. Q&A session in the field overlooking the crops while getting to know the five W's. These programs work best for people who have a strict no-tolerance rule for pesticide/herbicide usage and care about building a strong connection to their local farmer. With seven years of being in the profession, reading industry leading books by our mentors, completing both online and in-person workshops, We feel confident you will see, smell, taste, and feel the difference in our produce.
We are growing mushrooms! This year, we are very excited to announce that we are growing Shiitake, Oysters, and Lions Mane on the farm!
