What is a CSA?
A CSA consists of a community of individuals who pledge support to a local farming operation where the farmer and the consumers share the risks and benefits of food production.
You can sign up here to be a member of the CSA. JOIN NOW.
Frequently Asked Questions:
How does it work?
When you sign up, you pick a small (2 adults), medium (3 adults), or large (4+ adults) vegetable share.
You can also sign up for one or more of our add-on shares to round out your weekly groceries: pasture raised eggs, local cheese, local small batch coffee, fresh local sourdough, local fruit, and local pastured meats.
Each week we send you an email with a box of what’s in season that week, based on your preferences. You have a few days to go onto our web platform and swap items or add extras.
Then, you receive your share packaged in a cardboard box or cooler bag, which you either pick up at one of our drop locations or we deliver to your front door.
Fully Customizable!
Oak Spring Farm partners with Harvie to customize weekly shares based on your preferences.
You rank the vegetables we grow on a scale of 1-5.
We’ll give you more of what you like and none of what you don’t!
Our great features include:
- Weekly email with recipes & storage tips plus a preview of your customized CSA box.
- Further customize your share each week by swapping out items on the list online.
- Extra items can be added online to your CSA share each week.
- Pay in full or use a payment plan (25% at signup, 25% first delivery week, 50% distributed into payments each delivery week).

~ You’ll be supporting a local farmer without the middleman which means making our community stronger.
~ Your fruits and vegetables couldn’t be any fresher which means they’re more delicious and more nutritious. We literally just pulled them out of the earth.
~ Its inexpensive. Vegetables from the farm are nutrient dense and last longer so they’ll make it to the end of the week without going bad before you can use them.
~ Your personal likes and dislikes (and any food allergies) are taken into consideration because with the Harvie CSA platform your share is fully customizable!
~We’ll send recipes each week to help you discover the delicious flavors of that week’s selections AND you will gain membership to our exclusive FB group where we discuss weekly recipes, talk storage tips and other great local items to pair with your weekly veg. There will be photo contests and all kinds of ‘just for members’ events.
~On vacation or traveling? Gift your week’s share to a friend, double up on your share the week before or the week after or donate it to the food bank in your name.

A Thanksgiving Filled With Gratitude
Dear Oak Spring Farm Community, As we gather around the table this Thanksgiving, reflecting on the year gone by, what are you grateful for? In the spirit of the season, we want to share our heartfelt thanks with you, our extended family of customers, CSA members, and...
An Attitude of Gratitude
I’m grateful to be a mama. I’m grateful to be a farmer. I’m grateful for my choices. I’m passionate about being a CSA farmer because I love serving you, the member, the foodie, the locavore, the busy mom, the home chef and the hard-working professional. Oak Spring Farm delivers weekly fresh vegetables to the Baltimore City and Baltimore County community.
