What is a CSA?

​

CSA, or "Community Supported Agriculture," is a unique model of food distribution.  When you become a member of our CSA, you're purchasing a "share" of vegetables/produce from our farm.  

​

Each week, we'll put together a box of seasonal, fresh produce from our farm.**  As a member, you pay for an entire season of produce upfront.  Payment in this form allows us to plan for our season, including purchasing seed, maintaining our equipment and running our family business,

​

** There are some fruits/vegetables that we offer at our market but do not grow on our farm.  We have partnered with other Michigan farmers to provide our customers with more variety.

​

Why a CSA?  What are the benefits?

​

Buy local - your support helps local farms prosper

Eat fresh & healthy - you'll have access to more fruits and veggies!

Explore new foods - we'll help you learn how to eat, prepare and preserve!

Protect the environment - support farmers who are committed to taking care of our soil, land & water resources

​

Are there risks?

In farming and food production, there will always be some risk.  This usually takes the form of decreased supply/quality due to insects, disease and/or water issues (too much or too little). Part of the partnership/ownership in our CSA process is working through these times together/sharing risks and reaping the benefits/knowing that we'll share extra when there are abundant crops.
