The Community Supported Garden at Genesis Farm is world-renowned. True to the CSA model. One of the first in the country. Our community shares both the bounty and the cost with the farmers. Pure, clean, delicious, nutritious food grown with biodynamic principles and lots of love—and without chemicals. You're not just joining a CSA; you're joining our family.
Why a CSA?
For your health, for your community, for the Earth
Value
Generously sized shares, year-round produce, overall incomparable quality. Members also have access to our own grains, beans, popcorn, eggs, apple cider vinegar, and a variety of products from neighboring farms.
Community
Come and experience the diversity of our beautiful farm. Get to know your neighbors and farmers, reconnect to the land, pick a bouquet, visit the playground, attend special events, and support your wellbeing.
Sustainability
We grow primarily for our members, so all our growing decisions emphasize what’s good for the land. Members and farmers share in the risks and benefits of the harvest.
Experience
We’ve been here since 1988, and our farmers are experts, with 100 years of sustainable farming experience combined!
Education
Our strong and effective apprenticeship program train several future farmers every year. School groups regularly visit the farm, and we offer farm camp, cooking classes, shiitake inoculation workshops, seed saving, and more!
Stewardship
We use biodynamic and organic farming practices, including compost, cover crops, crop rotation, biodiversity and beneficials. We actively participate in the seed saving movement, supplying seed companies and our fellow farmers.

The critical and constant observation and care that each crop requires differently has taught me to interact with plants and the world around me with heightened awareness.
