Breezy Acres Garden Center Our CSA program began three years ago through a women in farming group. Our first year we started with 12 shares, our second jumped to 26 and this year we hope to have at least 35-40.
Although we are not certified organic we do not use any chemicals on our produce. We are eating the same produce you are getting in your basket and we strive for fresh, healthy, and chemical free food. Our farm grows many different varieties and are always incorporating new ones. I have the most fun trying out the many different greens, such as, mescluns, mustards, and kales to name a few.I think the best part of growing and producing fresh food is watching the reaction of the people when they pick up their basket.
Our CSA starts early-mid June and extends 16 weeks from that date. We also have a winter share that contains the hard goods of the garden and lasts for 5 weeks. Your basket will have whatever crops are ready to be harvested that particular week. We do not yet deliver shares, they are to be picked up at our farm on your specified day, which can be decided on when you sign up. Your basket will include lettuce greens, head, romaine and leaf types, radishes, peas, carrots, onions, green tails, garlic scapes, garlic, tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, string beans, drying beans, sweet and hot peppers, squash, broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, leeks, cucumbers, eggplant, turnip, parsnip, potatoes, summer squash and zucchini, melons, small fruits, herbs and many more.
