Community Supported Agriculture
Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) is an opportunity to buy local, seasonal and certified organic produce directly from the farmer. Members pay for each season up front and come to the farm to pick up their share of the weeks bounty. Your produce really is “fresh from the field.” As a CSA member you support this uniquely diverse farming operation and will eat better than you ever have! You will receive weekly farm updates and recipes through our newsletter and become a part of the healthy Fairview Gardens community. As an added bonus, you will also receive a 10% discount at the Farm Stand and Farmer’s Market.

In 2010 we are excited to collaborate with some other farmers in our region, providing increased economic security for them and more diversity to you. Fairview Gardens will continue to grow the majority of the share and will at times include and label items such as apples, broccoli and avocadoes from other farmers nearby. We strongly believe that collaboration is the necessary future for small-scale farmers and that we will be a model for other communities to follow. Your participation is appreciated.
