The Community Supported Garden at Genesis Farm
The Community Supported Garden at Genesis Farm began in 1988 as a creative response to corporate farming practices that deplete our environment. Today we are proud to be one of the oldest CSA's in the country. Our 300 members support sustainable farming practices that enrich the soil, compensate farmers fairly, and preserve open space for future generations.
We cultivate about 20 acres of land with many varieties of vegetables. Additional acres are cultivated with with wheat, oats, barley, rye and dry beans. Three greenhouses provide fresh greens over the winter months and root cellars for winter root storage. We have a fruit orchard, hardy kiwi vines and pick-your-own crops such as flowers and berries. The majority of the work is done by full-time farmers and a team of apprentices.
