UrbiCulture Farms CSA Membership Information
What it is!
UrbiCulture Farms is part of the local food movement and we receive our support through a popular model used by farms all over the world known as Community Supported Agriculture (CSA).
In essence, CSAs are a mutual relationship where the farm supports a community by growing fresh food and the community supports the farm by purchasing memberships. Members share the costs of supporting the farm and share the risk of variable harvests, as well as the over-abundance of particularly fruitful years!
Our CSA program is 20 weeks long beginning the end May and ending in October.

“Choose Your Own” Produce
In response to conversations we had last year with our CSA members we are offering a "choose your own" produce option. This program works differently than most other CSAs. At the beginning of the season, members still pay for a full share or a half share. However, instead of a picking up a pre-packed box of vegetables we allow you to choose what produce to take home from the array of seasonal vegetables that line the tables at our pick up locations. Signs will be displayed that guide you in the selection and quantity of vegetables to choose from. Pre-packed shares will still be an option.

Composting Program
We now offer a composting program for our members. Each week we supply you with a five gallon bucket that you can use to throw out your vegetable waste. Bring the container back to us each week and we will supply you with a new bucket. That way our farm becomes a closed loop system where your waste will be composted and then used to fertilize the soil we grow your food in.
