What is a CSA?

Community Supported Agriculture  is a system that connects the producer and consumers within the food system. More closely by allowing the consumer to subscribe to the harvest of a certain farm or group of farms.

We are are so pleased to continue partnering with our friends at Robin Ridge Farms and Schwartz Meat Company to bring you a meat and vegetable CSA basket produced locally in Bourbon & Fleming Counties. Each week beginning in May, you and your family will receive a vegetable basket along with your selected add-ons. In addition, depending on that week’s bounty we will supply you with a recipe on how to use your basket.
