Community Supported Agriculture Program...a WIN/WIN for all.
CSA is the abbreviation for Community Supported Agriculture - away of connecting farmers to New Yorkers. CSAs help to support family farms while providing urban and suburban neighborhoods access to high quality, locally-grown, affordable produce.
Our farm sells shares in our upcoming winter and spring harvest months to individuals, families, or institutions. The share price goes toward the cost of growing the crops during the winter and spring months. It's a WIN for you, the customer, as you get fresh, locally grown items during the winter. It's a WIN for our farm as we can plan and plant exactly what to grow during the expensive heating months.
What is a Farm CSA share at Lone Maple Farm?
The Farm Share CSA is a weekly program where shareholders receive fresh produce (and optionally fresh baked goods) each week. Although our retail farm market is not open, customers can come pick up their weekly share on Fridays from 5pm to 6pm or Saturdays from 11am to 12pm at the farm market. If those times don't work or things come up, we are flexible and can provide a custom pick up day and time.
