Community Supported Agriculture Program

CSA stands for Community Supported Agriculture.  It is an innovative concept that is helping secure a future for family farms all over the country.  It’s basically an agreement between the farmer and a community of consumers.  The consumer purchases a “Membership” which gives the Farmer a payment in the beginning of the year when they need it most to pay for seed, supplies, labor, etc.

In return, the Consumer, or Member, receives a weekly Subscription box of Fresh, Seasonal, and Organic Produce.  It is very rewarding for both the Farmer and the Community.  The Member or Shareholder gains the satisfaction of knowing they are supporting a Local, Sustainable, Family Farm while feeling a closer connection to the land, the Farmer who grows their food, and the beautiful abundance of food the Seasons have to offer.

Our CSA program provides our customers with at least 24 weeks of our fresh produce for the 2012 growing season which will run from May through mid Nov.  Each week our CSA members will receive a half bushel share of our freshest, seasonal, highest quality produce, grown by us.  To be picked up at a centralized location.  Our current pick up spots are the 12 South Market in Nashville on Tues. afternoons from3:30-6:30, the Nashville Farmers Market every Saturday morning, and the Hendersonville Farmers market at the Streets of Indian Lake every Saturday morning.

Here is a list of some of the Organic produce you can expect to receive throughout the Spring and Summer:  Strawberries, tomatoes, garlic, squash, lettuce, spring salad mix, arugula, braising and Asian greens, beets, kale, zucchini, summer squash, watermelons, cantaloupe, peppers of many varieties, cucumbers, radish, sunflowers, garlic flowers, basil, cilantro, dill, etc., potatoes, broccoli, carrots, onions, scallions, broccoli raab, cabbage, peas, beans, eggplant, spinach, heads of lettuce…and you can always expect a few surprises!
