As grocery prices continue to rise, we've put together some information to answer one of your most pressing questions this year: 'Is supporting Community Supported Agriculture economically viable for my household?'



We'll start off by saying that as grocery prices continue to increase, our CSA rates have remained unchanged. We understand that many households are feeling financial strain, and the last thing we want to do is contribute to this.


Taking part in Community Supported Agriculture allows individuals and families to buy directly from local farmers, providing a variety of fresh, seasonal produce that is healthier for you, the planet, and your budget - which is particularly important right now.


Furthermore, we'd like to highlight that although our CSA rates are based on $30/week (small) and $50/week (large), we always provide more than this.


Ultimately, we strongly believe that by supporting each other as customers and farmers, we can work together to overcome the challenge of rising food costs.


We hope that this market research we put together over the past week can act as proof of this.



Why CSA?


By supporting local farmers and food systems, you're investing in your community and small-scale, sustainable agriculture. Your dollars go directly to the farmers who grow your food, rather than large corporations. Moreover, CSA programs also offer a more predictable source of income for farmers, allowing them to provide high-quality produce at a reasonable price, despite market fluctuations.


Furthermore, supporting CSA programs is an economically viable way to combat rising grocery prices. With the many benefits of CSA programs, it's worth considering as an option for your household's food budget. Ultimately, joining a CSA is a win-win for both you and your local farmers.
