Rows of ProduceWhat is Community Supported Agriculture (CSA)?

CSA is a movement that reconnects the community with its food source, the local farmer -- a grassroots alternative to agribusiness.

Native Offerings Farm & Community Supported Agriculture

At Native Offerings Farm, we farm with our three children and are deeply committed to ecological farming. We are certified naturally grown, following organic standards, which prohibit the use of synthetic pesticides, herbicides, fungicides and fertilizers. Following standards assures you that genetically modified crops and organisms will not end up in your food.  More information on Certified Naturally Grown available at www.NaturallyGrown.org.

We believe healthy soils produce healthy plants and employ ecological practices such as composting, cover cropping, mulching and crop rotation. We look at the farm as an ecosystem that we directly impact and want to encourage and enhance diversity instead of limiting it.

SnapdragonFarming for the community and providing the best food we can offer to you is our only business. We grow varieties noted for their culinary and nutritional value. Because every meal begins with your eyes, we enjoy growing beautiful vegetables. We believe a healthy diet is essential to superior health and longevity.

We work very hard to produce vital food for you and your family. When you buy a share you are buying more than vegetables; you are supporting our family and strengthening our local community. By supporting us you not only get incredibly fresh and great tasting vegetables full of nutrients and vitality, but a food source you can trust.
