2024 Seasonal Shares

Fledgling Farm is not certified organic but we do utilize organic practices. No chemical pesticides or fertilizers will ever be used at our farm. Instead, we manage our pests with row cover, balanced soil biology, and biodiversity!

Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) is a beautiful symbiotic bond between farmers and consumers. Your CSA membership empowers us by providing financial security to grow nutritious food and revitalize the soil. As a consumer, you get premiere access to the freshest produce, at a fraction of the cost of your local Farmer's Market.
‍
But CSA membership offers more than just food; it's about trust, and forging a deep connection with the land, as well as knowing your food is grown with integrity and sustainable practices. You're not just a consumer; you become part of the Fledgling family, a community committed to health and responsible farming.

Each week, our CSA shares feature whatever is in peak season on our farm, so the content of the boxes change each and every week depending on the time of year. We try to give you a variety of items that will cover all your vegetable bases so you never get bored.

Not if you don't want to! Currently, we offer pay-as-you-go shares, where you can receive one box per week, allowing for flexibility in your farm share commitment. Alternatively, you have the choice to purchase a full or half-season share. Opting for a full or half-season share means you're supporting our farm for the entire 20-week season, and you'll also enjoy an additional discount when you pay in full at sign-up.

Do you cook half of the week, eat veggies a few times a week and are the only one in your household or have a spouse? We’d recommend the garden share size for you. Do you cook a lot, eat veggies most days, and have more people in your household? We’d recommend the family share size.  

And don't worry if you have strong preferences and/or travel a lot and can't fully commit to a weekly pickup–our flexible model offers weekly skips for exchange for a future credit, along with the ability to pick and choose the items in your share!

If you're not able to pick up your share, you can either skip a week, or have a friend or family member can pick it up for you. Alternatively, you can opt to donate your share to the local food bank, which Fledgling Farm will do on your behalf.
