CSA


2015 CSA memberships are now available! Join our farm for an exciting and healthy adventure in 2015. Sign Up Online Here.


How It Works:

  • Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) is a partnership between community members, like you, and a local farm.  When you join our CSA program, you pay a “share” of our annual budget up front (in the form of a one-time annual fee) in return for a share of the farm’s seasonal harvests hereby becoming a member of the farm.  Your membership is an investment in the farm for a full harvest season and gives you access to the best selection of locally-grown, hand-picked produce at our most affordable price, as well as full access to your farmers and participation in farm events.
How Much Will I Receive if I Join the CSA?
  • Every two weeks, farm members receive a supply of fresh, hand-picked vegetables at their peak of flavor, nutrition and eating quality.  We will be harvesting produce for 24 weeks from mid-May through October.  A “share” contains from 8 to 12 different items.  We grow over 50 types of vegetables, herbs, and fruits. We select the best varieties based on flavor and quality. See "What's Growing" for a more complete list of what we grow on our farm.
How Much Does It Cost?
  •  A CSA Membership costs $720. The averages out to $30/week or less than $4.30/day per family for 6 months of local, organically-grown produce.
  • We require $150 to reserve your membership before May 15th.
  • Payment plans are available. Please email  or call us to set up a payment plan.
  • If you are interested in paying with a debit or credit card, please click this link to Purchase Your CSA Membership Online through PayPal.
How Do I Receive My Share?
  • Pick up your CSA share at 1265 Poseidon Ct. St. Peters, MO 63376 (near the intersection of Mid Rivers Mall Drive and Willott Road) on Thursdays or Fridays from 2pm to 7pm.
How To Join!
Benefits Beyond The Food?
  • Each member receives newsletters, recipes, and invitations to seasonal farm events & celebrations. 
What If I Go Out of Town During The Season?
  •   If you go out of town during the season or are unable to pick up your share please make arrangements to pass the bounty on to a neighbor or family member.  If you know ahead of time that you will be gone please call (48 hours advance notice) to let us know, and we can arrange for you to receive your share another time.  Otherwise your share will be donated to a local food pantry.
What if the Weather is Bad this Year?
  • CSA spreads the benefits and risks of agricultural production between the farmer and the members.  This means that if the weather is not so good during a growing season, and harvests are down, the effects are spread among many people, not just the farmer.  This is how CSA keeps small farms like ours going strong through thick and thin.  The upside is that when the weather (and production) is great, then the benefits are spread to you, too!  Remember that your membership is an investment in land, food and relationships that have both immediate and long-lasting impacts.  Plus, you can always count on the fact that your farm-fresh food is free of any synthetic pesticide sprays.  It's all-natural!
