CSA—Program Info

Eating is an agricultural act — Wendell Berry

Help

Community supported agriculture (CSA) is a cooperative model that puts farmers and eaters in direct, intimate contact. By sharing the risks inherent in farming, this model allows growers to avoid debt, employ sustainable methods, and build farms that are deeply connected to the communities they serve.

Important Note about the 2025 CSA, 2/2/25

 

Our 10-year contract with Nassau County expired on December 31, 2024. We submitted a bid to continue operating, but the County has not made an announcement yet. So this year, in addition to accepting the risk that pests and weather could reduce crop yields, CSA members must also accept the risk that we could get evicted at any moment.

 

Given the choice between quitting or moving forward without a contract, we are choosing to move forward. If we do get evicted, we will issue pro-rated refunds. We have operated with full transparency throughout this process, and we will continue to do so. 

​

Fingers crossed that we will be loading CSA members up with potatoes and garlic next October!
