This document provides information about a local organic farm and its Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program. The farm is located in Rock Stream, NY and has been certified organic since 2005. Through its CSA program, members pay for a share of the seasonal harvest upfront which they then receive weekly as fresh organic produce. Sample shares are shown for different months of the season. The farm uses organic practices like crop rotation and cover crops. CSA members have various payment options and can choose delivery locations in the local area.

CSA - Community Supported Agriculture
• An agreement for an entire growing season between the farmer and the CSA member
• The CSA member pays the farmer up front and in return the farmer grows the food
and shares it with the member. With the purchase of a CSA Share, the farm has the
funds to get the season going, can focus on growing, and knows that the veggies will
go to a good home.
• The farmer and the member share the risks and the bounty of farming together.
• The CSA member knows their farmer personally and gains insight into how and where
their food is grown.
• Farm events throughout the season that are entertaining and educational

5. What is a weekly CSA share?
• CSA shares are seasonal and change weekly depending on what is
ready for harvest.
• Your vegetables are harvested and packed fresh daily
• You will receive a weekly email about what is in the share for the
week with recipes, tips, and farm news.
