What is a CSA?
CSA stands for "Community Supported Agriculture." CSAs are a way for farms and the community to mutually support each another. The CSA model helps get income to farms when costs are high in the spring and supports the farm to focus on growing food for their members.
By subscribing to a Brady Farm CSA share you help to sustain the farm, you receive regular farm-fresh produce, and you save money. Subscriptions are called "shares" because members share the benefits and risks, and are given a voice in what is grown at the farm.
Produce CSA
Our produce CSA runs for 20 weeks from early June to mid October. If that is too much to handle, you can also choose to receive the produce bi-weekly (10 weeks) for any share type we provide!
For Bi-weekly share, you let us know which group to be in:
-
"Week 1" ... June 11th ~ October 18th
-
"Week 2" ... June 18th ~ October 25th
Your first and last day of CSA vary depending on when you pickup/receive delivery.
