Now Taking Registrations for Our 2017 Summer CSA

We are excited to announce that we are now taking registrations for our 2017 Summer CSA. This will be our fourth year offering this program which is becoming an integral of our farming operation. Last year with our move to our new farm location we were able to increase our membership by 50%. We aim to keep it at about the same size for this year.  Signing up early is recommend as we sell out each year.  

There were many changes to our farm last year. The move of our farm being at the forefront of the changes. We also started raising pork for the first time. The pigs were a lot of fun; useful as farm helpers eating any veggie scraps that did not make the cut for human consumption and were amazing at preparing new soil. This year we will be planting the bulk of our cut flowers where they roamed last year. The pigs fit in so well with our farm that we will continue to raise them. I think they were also a highlight for the many children who visited the farm during the CSA pick-ups. A favourite part of our summer was watching the children get excited about visiting the farm and learning about where their food comes from. 

We have spent some time reflecting on things we would like to change from last year and goals we have set for this year and are really looking forward to ramping up production for the upcoming season!  We can't thank our members enough for being part of the farm - without them, we would not be able to continually grow our farm.

New to our farm this year we will be selling any surplus of veggies and flowers during the CSA pick-up times. This will allow for CSA members to purchase extra of items they need more of and non-CSA members will also welcome to come up and purchase items as well. The selection may be limited this year but we look forward to expanding our offerings.

In past years we have included a hand built Terra Firma wood crate in the price of the shares. As many of our past members may be accumulating more boxes than they want,   we are selling the boxes as an optional item this year. The boxes are stackable, so many members are collecting them but if you would prefer you can also bring a reusable bag to pick up your shares.
