ALL SEASON, FLEXIBLE, CONVENIENT
What is CSA or Community Supported Agriculture?
Community Supported Agriculture is a symbiotic relationship, based on trust and faith, between farmer and community. It is important to remember that us, the farmers, rely on the income of the CSA to operate our farm. We plan, seed, and tend to crops many months before they arrive in your share. We work diligently to follow through with attention to detail, quality of vegetables, and diversity of the harvest for these prepaid shares.
What is a FREE CHOICE CSA CARD?
We are changing our CSA model to best support the shifts in our world and to keep our farm viable. The 'Free Choice CSA Card' is new for 2022! We are excited to offer this flexible option! Same great veggies, same exceptional quality, same reliability.
This style of CSA allows you, the member, to pick up our seasonal vegetables any time our farm store, The Roots Farm Market, is open. CSA Cards can be purchased in several increments with a discount applied at check out. The upfront payment helps our farm with seasonal growing costs when we need it most (seed purchasing, compost orders, greenhouse supplies, labor, etc) In turn, we provide a discount for this up front purchase.
You choose the vegetables, pick up times, and quantity. Use your CSA card at checkout.
We'll provide a weekly "harvest report" so you know what to expect, seasonal recipes, storage advice, and farm updates. Our members also receive special discounts on other local items throughout the year.
​
Where can I pick up my CSA?
Our farm store: The Roots Farm Market in Middlesex VT located at the corner of 100B & Route 2. During store hours.
