Salad Days CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) for weeks of June 21 to August 9, 2024: This is a one-time purchase for 8 weeks of our CSA program. (Please sign up for our mailing list to receive renewal notifications!)

The focus of our CSA Program is to provide you with free-range ethical eggs (from hens with names) and fresh, organic salad and cooking greens, harvested at the peak of freshness. Some of these greens are rare, and you won’t find them in the grocery store - we grow heirloom european varieties in addition to the tried and true favourites. This share will also incorporate some vacuum-packed & frozen goods made from our produce at the height of the season, and preserves and root crops. We grow every single thing we sell, and we are happy to talk to you about our regenerative growing practices. Animal welfare, soil health and habitat preservation are our top priorities.

We will leave a cooler at Right Fit/Brake Room by 12:30 p.m each Friday, and you will be able to pick up your share from there during the course of the day, during opening hours. Please return your cooler bag each week, and we will reuse it. We would appreciate it if you could return this bag at the end of the session, if you are not renewing. We reuse almost all our packaging, so jars and egg carton returns are also very appreciated!

NB: Crop planning for a CSA is a delicate and complex balance, and our vegetables are sown and grown to mature at an intended time - so we can harvest them at peak freshness for you, every single week. Because of this, we unfortunately cannot accommodate requests to pause, double up or refund your share if you will be away on vacation during one of the weeks of the CSA. The vegetables keep growing whether we are there to harvest them or not - this is also why we run our CSA session in shorter bursts, instead of the typical 5-6 month CSA share model. This way, you can dip out if you need to for a session. If you will be away for more than a week, our suggestion is to allow us to donate your share to a shelter or local organization - if this is something you are comfortable doing.

Thanks for supporting your small, local and sustainable farm! We appreciate your business!
