We've been running our CSA program since 2013. Victoria was even featured in a national podcast to discuss some of her tips for running a successful CSA program for other farmers. We've studied other programs around the U.S. and tested different methods on our own farm. We've interviewed our all-star customers to discover what they love about this process. We collect data to see which crops are most beloved. We understand the importance of variety every week because we eat along with you. In summary, we live and breathe our CSA - we know what works and what doesn't and our wisdom means we can give you the best experience.

We recognize that eating is not a one-size-fits-all process. Though our base share items are the same for everyone, helping us to find mealtime inspiration together, we offer different options to fit your lifestyle. These customization options include length of season (choose from 3 different programs), choice of 3 pickup days (7+ hour time frame on each day), and share size (large or small). We grow over 80 different varieties of vegetables, so you're not eating squash every week. You can change your pickup day or skip and double a week if you'll be away. There is a swap table available and most weeks include a veggie of your choice so you leave with a bag of groceries you'll actually eat.

Most CSA farmers will take your money, give you a box of veggies, and send you on your way. Not us – we want you to love this experience. A few days before pickup we send you a newsletter. This includes a list of box offerings so you can plan your meals, veggie storage and care information, recipe ideas, and a host of photos and updates from the week. When you arrive at pickup, a crew member will go over each of your items as they bag them up. And if you're ever not sure what to do with an item, you can hop over to our online Vegetable Library of Resources or members' Facebook group for more inspiration.

"When I was a newbie to their program, they welcomed me with open arms and I quickly became part of the LGF family." - Anne K.

In addition to providing extra value into the share contents each week, we build in opportunities for raffles, giveaways, freebies, and more fun. Our members are invited to potlucks and free pick-your-own bonus events. We know your kids' names and whether or not you like kohlrabi. We hand select items for every single share that we would only choose for our own kitchen.
