CSA Shares Now Available for 2021
Ready to get a weekly veggie box from a local small farm? Imagine picking up a box of fresh local veggies every week, grown, nurtured, and harvested here in Middlebury, and taking it home for your family’s table—food that was picked that day—that you’ve already paid for. Is that you?
