Relaunching our 2024 CSA!
Hey, Friends! We hope your 2024 year is off to a great start! You may have received the e-mail notice that our CSA is returning to Long Island this season. We’re so excited to finally grow on our very own farmland as we celebrate our 30th year of CSA farming! Our land is located in a private fertile valley along the Connecticut River in southern Vermont. We were looking for farmland in a place that was pristine to grow food - free from water, soil and air contamination that unfortunately, has become all too common on Long Island. We will be bringing down the shares to Long Island each week in our energy efficient refrigerated trucks. You will receive the same incredible variety, quality and beauty in the shares each week that you have come to expect from our CSA program. You can see some photos of the new farmland here.
We are committed to keeping our share price accessible to all, so our Full Share is just $36.95 per week this season. We offer custom flexible payment plans where you can pay installments over a 2, 3, or even 4 month period. And as always, we offer to option to “split” the share, for a bi-weekly pickup at half the price. You are encouraged to find someone to split with or we can help match you up! Please reach out if you’d like to discuss payment plans or help finding a partner to split a share. We are always willing to work with you to make CSA membership accessible and practical for you.
Fruit CSA News… We have a new fruit farmer that will be supplying us with Ecologically-grown tree fruit! The farmers at Champlain Orchards have certified Eco-apples, pears and other tree fruits. Growing tree fruit in VT can be done more sustainably and with less chemicals because it’s away from the overly humid coastal conditions. We are very excited about this new partnership for those who want healthier fruit in their CSA.
Finally, we have a handful of new pickup locations on the Island, including Dix Hills, Glen Cove, Locust Valley, Floral Park, Stewart Manor, Mineola and Northport! Find a full list of locations and a map here.
Thank you again for your support of our farm over the years. Please contact us with any questions, concerns or suggestions!
Warmest wishes from the farm,
Maggie & Matt
