Certified Organic
Our CSA includes many different fruits and vegetables and truly pastured eggs from happy chickens. Our vegetables and fruits are Certified Organic. Our Animal Welfare Approved (AWA) pastured eggs are ‘handcrafted’ and unmatched; healthier and tastier than any store bought egg. We let our chickens roam to dig in the gardens, compost piles and animal pastures; the yolks are as bright and rich orange as a summer sunset! We feed our chickens Triple M Farms feed, a locally grown and milled non GMO vegetarian mash. Our commitment to this purchase allows us to support a local farmer who works hard to grow non GMO crops. This is no easy task in today’s climate of big business controlled GMO seed. We feel better knowing we are feeding our chickens (and therefore our family) a truly natural product with no animal by products, no fillers and no GMOs.
What is a CSA?
CSA or Community Sponsored Agriculture where members pay all or part of a share price up front to secure a weekly portion of fresh, seasonal produce throughout the growing season. It is a win-win situation. The farmer gets capital when it’s most needed and the member gets the freshest, produce available while supporting a small, local business.
