Signing Up for a CSA is the best way to support our local, family run regenerative farm. We depend on the early season income provided by our CSA memberships to pay for the labor and purchase the supplies we need to start our season without going into credit card debt or taking out a loan. Joining our, or any other local farm, CSA  pledges your support to small scale, regenerative food systems and keeps your dollars in the local economy. And the ginormous bonus of signing up for a CSA is that you are practicing radical self care by choosing to know the source and contents of the food you eat.

For 2026 we have made a significant change to our scheduling format. Our Veggie CSA will run from mid May through the end of October, increasing the total length by 4 weeks. And we have made the difficult decision to not offer a Fall CSA for 2026. The deer and elk pressure is nearly unmanageable in our plots from mid September through December and we have experienced significant crop loss in the two seasons we have been in Willamina. This decision will give our fields, and ourselves, a chance to rest. We will be able to get cover crops down earlier and rotate animals more frequently leading to healthier happier soil. We will also be able to dedicate more space and time to our mid spring through early fall crops. Our goals for 2026 are to increase the quantity of items in our weekly shares. Specifically we will be growing more lettuces for salad mix, more basil and other herbs, and will have the space to grow summer broccoli, kohlrabi, broccolini, cauliflower and cabbage. We are aiming to increase our weekly share size from the 7-10 item range to the 9-12 item range.

 


You can use SNAP payments for our CSA! And Double Up Food Bucks(DUFB) can reduce the cost of our Veggie CSA SNAP members by 50%. To pay with SNAP you will need to sign up for our CSA, fill out a few more forms and then we will set up a monthly payment plan to spread out the cost. Five equal payments will automatically come out of your SNAP account in May, June, July, August, September and October. And we are able to offer free delivery to SNAP members who are in our delivery zone(see zip codes above). This is all thanks to the incredible work of the non profit organization PNWCSA.

What to Expect
Small farms are at the mercy of the seasons and (while we wish we could) the size and variety of our shares cannot be guaranteed. We aim to have 9-12 items per share. The first few months of shares will be the smallest typically 9 items with lots of greens. As the season warms up your shares will get bigger with more variety. Later in the season you can usually expect 10-12 items.
