2012 CSA Programs

CSA stands for Community Supported Agriculture. It's a partnership with your farmer focusing on producing high quality foods using ecologically sound methods of farming. CSA members support the budget of the farm and in return receive a weekly share of what's in season. CSA's focus is usually on a system of weekly delivery or pick-up of vegetables, and sometimes flowers, fruits, herbs and even milk or meat products.

Both the farmer and the member share in the risks and rewards of production. Both parties are at risk from inclement weather and natural disasters and both share the rewards of superior conditions and bumper crops.

NV Ranch will begin our fifth year of Community Supported Agriculture in Spring 2012.

What we offer

The 2012 program runs for 24 weeks from May 13th through October 27th. Pickups will occur each week at your selected location.

CSA FAQ

Can I make payments on my share?

Yes, you may split the cost of your share into multiple payments, as long as payment is received in full by March 1st.

What if I don't like some of the items I receive in my share?

We make an effort to plant a wide variety of produce to satisfy our members tastes. Unfortunately, we can't customize the contents of shares.

What is this thing in my share this week?

We plant many common items most families use on a regular basis. Part of the fun of participating in a CSA is receiving the unexpected. For any unusual or out-of-the-ordinary items, we are sure to post recipes.

What if I can't pick up my share this week?

Please call us at least a day ahead and either designate someone else to pick up your share or tell us to donate your share for the week to a local needy family. With enough notice, you may also choose to pick up on a different day/location.
