CSA Farm Shares at Waltham Fields Now Available

Buy a share in your community farm and eat local June-Oct with a summer CSA farm share - still available! Starts June 7th.

We still have a few shares available for our Community Supported Agriculture summer farm share, starting the week of June 5th! For one up-front price, shareholders come to the farm to pick out their vegetables in our Distribution Barn. See our website for specific pickup days and hours - you can come either Wed, Thurs, or Saturday, once weekly. We bring in the harvest, with 10-15 different crops in the mix, and give you the option to choose about 6-9 of these vegetable to pack up in your own bags and take home. Shareholders choose what items they like, customizing the share each week to their own tastes. Some crops may be limited, and others abundant, depending on the week and weather. One CSA share is an ample amount of food for a household of 4 (and some families choose to buy a share and split it with a friend....there's a lot of food!)

While our farmers harvest the majority of crops for pick-up in the barn, shareholders can round out their weekly share with an array of pick-your-own crops. Pick-your-own maps and lists with quantities are made available to shareholders each week, and the farm is open every day during daylight hours for shareholders to pick these crops. Our weekly CSA newsletters keep shareholders updated on the progress of the crops and the ups and downs of the season. All crops are grown using organic practices. Please see our website for more information and to sign up. Communityfarms.org
