All Seed CSA options open for enrollment November 01, 2024- January 31, 2025
We have 4 membership tiers for Community Supported Agriculture bundles from flower gardens to small gardens all the way up to a homestead scale. For the flower CSA, beginning in February, we send you 4 shipments of flower seeds with growing instructions to help you plant the right seeds at the right time for abundant food, beauty and medicine.
Here is a unique opportunity to be part of a community of seed stewards through enrolling in a membership with our Community Supported Seeds program for this year. You will receive 4 shipments of seasonally appropriate, open pollinated flower seeds.
For those of you unfamiliar with the CSA model, it was developed as a way for people to get more involved with the source of sustenance - our farms and farmers through supporting them directly. Here is how it works: you sign up early in the season, helping the farmer with dearly needed early season cash-flow and a known customer base. In exchange you receive more than fair market value in produce (the typical model) for your investment.
This offering is designed to help you create continuous flowers for cutting bouquets or enjoying in the garden over a long season. We’ll send you seeds for planting on the dates listed in the following text. The following is an example of a previous years' CSA packets.
