What is a CSA
CSA stands for Community Supported Agriculture. Becoming an Earth Haven Farm CSA member gives you a direct relationship with us, your farmers. Your membership provides you with much more than the weekly joy of receiving ultra-fresh, organic and locally grown produce. It provides you with education, the opportunity to try new food, and pride in the knowledge that you are reducing your environmental footprint and directly contributing to sustainable, local, organic farming while helping to support the next generation of farmers.
How Our CSA Works
Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) shares give you a direct connection to the local farm where your vegetables are grown and with the farmer who grows them. They also give you fresh, delicious, organic produce throughout the growing season.
By buying shares of the future harvest while the ground is still frozen, you allow us to purchase the seeds and equipment needed in the spring. Once the season begins, usually by mid-June, we harvest fresh vegetables for you to enjoy each week or bi-weekly if preferred up until the end of the season, usually by mid-October.
Shareholders thus agree to share the risks as well as the bounty of the harvest, allowing farmers to focus on growing – that is what we do best!
Shares are harvested weekly for 18-20 weeks starting approximately by mid-June. You will be notified as soon as crops are ready for harvesting and pick-up. Members are encouraged to bring their own bags, baskets or containers to take the bounty home. Each week the contents of the share change based on what is in season.
Payment is required at the time you sign up to become a member. We accept cash, cheque or e-transfer made to info@earthhaven.ca. Installments can be arranged.

Over and above your CSA box, any of the items listed under the "Our Products" list on our website can be ordered to go into your box. These items must be paid for in advance by e-transfer or by cash on the day of pick-up.
