I. What is it?

10 weeks worth of beautifully grown, nutrient dense, produce. You’ll pick up from October 24th- December 12th. The week before Thanksgiving will be a double share, as well as the last week. We’ll have lots of root veggies, tubers and fresh greens.

Our members love our Fall CSA. Climatically, fall is our favorite time to grow veggies in Connecticut. The moderate temperatures, adequate rain and sun, plus cool fall nights, produce sweet, delicious, nutrient dense vegetables. Each year has proven better and better for our fall harvest, and now that we have our beautiful, insulated barn in which to wash and distribute produce, we are much more resilient to weather extremes. No more distributing veggies under a tent in the yard during a snow storm!

Our goal is no waste. Our packaging is a combination of biodegradable plastic bags and paper bags. You can pick up a share from a basket if you bring your own bag, reducing our need for packaging.
