What is a CSA, you ask?
Community Supported Agriculture. This is a program where, in partnership with Windflower Farm (located in Valley Falls, NY), Prospect Heights neighbors buy shares of fresh, healthy produce directly from the farmer.
Eliminating the middle man ensures that the money we pay goes directly to our farmer, Ted Blomgren at Windflower Farm. Supporting local organic farms supports regional sustainability. Enhancing the availability of the freshest produce in Prospect Heights for people of all income levels, bringing real, healthy food access to more people ensures that the "community" aspect of Community Supported Agriculture rings true.
Pickup Location
Members will be able to pick up their shares on Tuesdays beginning June 7th, 5:00 pm - 7:30 pm, at Fountain Studios, 604 Grand Ave., between St Marks Ave. and Bergen St.
Member Work Shift Requirement
Our CSA Members will also be responsible for working two 2-hour shifts during the season. The work shifts include every member in the operation of this CSA, and are a great way to get to know your neighbors and fellow CSA members. You will receive more info about signing up for work shifts once you’ve joined the CSA.
Please join us for a fun and tasty season!
