A Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program is a way for you, the customer, to purchase a variety of different products from our farm. This program allows you to buy shares of produce, meat, chicken, and eggs. By participating in a CSA you get the same quality products we sell in our store, at a discounted price. The CSA program is designed to help the farmer and customer build a relationship and allows the farmer to grow and expand their farm while providing the customer with the weekly harvest from the farm.
By Participating in one of our many CSA programs, you are helping support your local farmers and in return getting a product that you know and can see exactly where it comes from. Our CSA program provides you with the freshest food for you and your family, in addition to giving you a variety of different foods that you can explore and learn to cook. Last but not least, our CSA program gives you nothing short of a huge variety of meats, eggs, fruits, and vegetables, allowing you and your family to maintain healthy eating habits.
We currently offer the following CSA programs:
Stop by our farm on our scheduled pick-up days to see exactly where your CSA comes from. By coming to the farm you are also able to purchase any of the other products that we have to offer that might not necessarily be in your CSA that week.
Many of our customers have expressed interest in our CSA program, however they were not able to come to the farm to pick up their share for various reasons. Because of this, all of us at Zekiah Farms3 have decided to add a delivery service to our CSA program so that all of our customers are able to enjoy our CSA programs. This service is available for all of our CSA programs. Please select this delivery option on your CSA form if you would like to take advantage of this new option.
