Community Supported Agriculture

What is a CSA?

CSA stands for Community Supported Agriculture, which is a partnership between farmers and consumers. A farm will sell memberships, or shares, before the start of the season, which provides members with fresh produce every week during harvest season.

What Do We Mean By Fresh?

Almost every item will be harvested the same day or the day before pickup. At many grocery stores, the fruit and veggies you will find are weeks to months old, and have traveled hundreds to thousands of miles to get there! With a CSA, you know who is growing your food and how it is grown.

Why Should I Consider Joining a CSA?

A CSA membership supports a small, local farm focusing on sustainable practices for growing our vegetables and flowers. It’s also a great opportunity to experience a broad range of food and learn what can be grown here in Michigan! You'll see your weekly harvest change with the seasons, and have a better connection and appreciation for your food. No two seasons are the same. Some crops thrive, and others struggle based on weather, pests, and other factors. In the end, you'll have a better connection with the area you live in and the people around you. Joining a CSA is also a great way to try new vegetables, recipes, and cooking methods! 

What CSA Options Do You Offer?

We offer a half-share or full-share option for vegetable CSAs, as well as an 8-week summer flower CSA. A half share is a good option for 1-2 people, while a full share is ideal for 4 people or for those who love vegetables!

When and Where Can I Pick Up My CSA Share?

Vegetable CSA pick-up begins the last week of May and runs through early October (our goal is 20 weeks of pick-up). The summer flower CSA pick-up begins in late July or early August. We offer weekly pick-up at the farm in Belleville or at the Westland Farmer’s Market.

What are the Benefits of Joining Your CSA?

There are several benefits to joining our CSA! CSA members take priority for premium or limited quantity crops, such as strawberries and corn. CSA members also take priority in purchasing additional items based on availability. It is our goal to support you as a CSA member, providing you with a weekly newsletter featuring customized tips and recipes.
