Let us be your community Farmers!
Using sustainable, regenerative farming practices, members in our community are able to enjoy our certified organic produce year-round! Our members love the feeling of knowing that their food is grown by members of their community, and that they can trust in the positive ecological and human impact that their farm has.
What's Inside?
'Community Supported Agriculture' is based in the concept of mutually shared abundance. This means that at the beginning of the season a member buys a 'share' in our yearly production which secures them fresh, organic vegetables each week and also allows us as farmers to have reliable income in order to focus on doing what we love (growing food!).
All of our shares are available 'Market-style', which means that members have options to stock up on the vegetables that they love, and leave behind the ones that they don't. Each week members will find some options availible 'free choice', so they choose how much to take home! Cooking greens, salad mixes and herbs are always free choice, plus items which we have a lot of (zucchini is a good example!)
Our CSA baskets are filled with all of the highest quality, just-harvested produce that each season has to offer. We harvest fresh vegetables from May to February and grow everything from Arugula to Zucchini.
Spring baskets contain the first fresh greens and tender roots coming from our unheated tunnels. Summer shares bring vine-ripe tomatoes, crisp cucumbers and the sweetest melons. Shares in Autumn showcase our frost sweetened carrots, colourful squash and hearty tubers. And finally, in Winter we fill our root cellar with the rich, sustaining food that lasts until Spring- potatoes, beets, cabbages, garlic, leeks and so, so much more!

We'll text you each week before we harvest, and you'll have until that week's cutoff time (48 hours before pickup or delivery) to add extras to your order, or to notify us if you need to skip the week's share.
And speaking of skip...
While we’d never advise skipping your veggies, we understand that life gets busy! If you cannot pickup your share, you can choose to double up on a future order, or have us donate it on your behalf. You can also switch locations if needed, or skip the order for future credit. All you have to do is send a text message and it's taken care of.
Absolutely! You can choose to add on extra veggies each week or opt in for a regular add-on. Members have exclusive access to our add-on shop, where they can get regular deliveries of bread, eggs, mushrooms and coffee.
Please bring your own reusable bags or boxes to collect your share.
Your membership is a commitment to accept some risk in the yearly vegetable availability, understanding that each season is unique and that agriculture is highly variable due to weather and climate fluctuations. Other than that, your membership is an opportunity to learn to love your veggies, and be open to trying a few new ones!
If you forget to pick your basket up, your veggies will be donated. All excess produce is donated weekly to Le Grenier Des Collines.
You are encouraged to book double shares or add additional veggies to your baskets with your credit. if you have credit still at the end of the season, it can be applied to future shares.
We only offer home delivery in the Winter season (November to February), in select areas.
We offer a weekly newsletter with recipes and tips about how to use your share. We also have a "CSA Success" Library where you can dive in further to expand you knowledge and increase your confidence in the kitchen!
A regular share is good for folks who cook 4-6 meals at home each week. It is suitable for singles or couples, or families who do not cook at home as much. A large share is a good choice for families or couples who eat a veggie heavy diet and for those who cook all meals at home. It contains 50% more than the regular share, and gives a little more choice.
Each delivery contains a variety of just-picked, in season produce. We strive to include as many favorites as possible and a few interested items. You can expect to receive 8-12 items in the Regular Share and 10-14 items in the Large share.
We do not offer customization at this time but because our pick-ups are 'market style', members are able to choose more of the items they prefer and leave the ones they don't. Members are always welcome to add aditional items to their shares, which are availible on our shop at a 10% discount.
We always offer a few items each week that are 'Free Choice'. This means that the member can take as much as they need of those items. Herbs, greens, and salads are usually free choice, plus the things we have in overabundance!
