Our CSA - Community Shared Agriculture, works a little different than most places so we encourage you to read all about it here but here's the Cliff Notes:
You come to the farm stand each week, beginning in late June, check out the board with the list for what's part of the CSA that week, select your own produce, get a discount on items we don’t grow, and can have all the free compost you want (actually we have a 100-ton limit, sorry). We post the CSA list Monday morning and you pick up your goodies any day of the week that works for you (although we encourage weekday pickups so you can beat the Saturday and Sunday crowds). If you decide you need more for your big shindig on Saturday night you get a discount on that too. Pay for your CSA before the end of February and save big $$.
There is an option to pay for your CSA shares via PayPal
(please note the 3% convenience fee).
Go to our CSA Agreement page and CSA Information page above (in the banner above right here on the website) and let's get you signed up!
If you choose to pay via PayPal, you still MUST sign and send your
CSA agreement through email or snail mail. We look forward to having you join us!

We're Opening Early This Season!
Drum roll, please! You heard it here first folks. We will open the farm stand 2 months early this year, in late April, with bedding plants, produce, meats, cheese, pasta, baked goods, sauces, and other local wonderfulness. We're so excited to begin the season early and see all of you. Stay tuned for the exact opening date and hours.
Your
favorite farmer and friends are planning a pop-up opening for a few
hours this Saturday, February 13th. Stop on over between 2 and 4 pm to
pick up delectable food gifts for the ones you love. We'll have lots of
amazing SIW jarred goods including our pasta sauces, honey, and fruit
butters. Gerald and Natalie will also have HG's homemade pickles,
delectable candied nuts, and chocolate-covered strawberries available
for purchase.
Chocolate Covered Strawberries are $15 per order and include dark and white chocolate covered yumminess.

A Word from HG, Our Farmer, About Natalie & Gerald
I thought I should let you all know a little about where your food is coming from. The origin of the food is locally grown as much as possible. Personally selected by Natalie and Gerald and prepared In their laboratory of deliciousness. Natalie lost her executive chef job at the beginning of the pandemic and Gerald’s catering business “Eat Blvck” came to a screeching halt. Gerald continues to teach a high school culinary course, though virtual classes make it difficult. He hopes to inspire those young adults to pursue a culinary career after high school.
The pandemic has not changed their upbeat attitudes. This amazing husband and wife team have participated in barn dinners as chefs as well as guests (to spy on their contemporaries and friends). Smiles and laughter are plentiful. SIW and our customers have benefited from their unfortunate circumstances with many a lip smacking meal. For that I am grateful. Thank you Natalie and Gerald.
For questions, concerns, feedback, etc. please email farmtofork4u@gmail.com. Thank you! Please note the farm stand is closed for the season & will be open for dinner pick-ups only.
