Members of Casey Farm's Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program receive a
mix of fresh organic vegetables, fruits, herbs, and pick-your-own flowers weekly
throughout the 21-week season. Most items are harvested the day members receive
them, assuring peak flavor, ripeness, and nutrition.
All CSA members work for
the farm, both to reduce the need for hired help and to give members a sense of
what is involved in food production. The eight hours of work during the season
may include planting, cultivating, or harvesting.
Casey Farm also hosts the
Coastal Growers' Market every Saturday from 9am-Noon, May to November. Please
visit coastalmarket.org for information on the Grower's Market.
