To us your CSA box is in many respects a celebration of hard work. And luckily for me, I have a crew that is not afraid of breaking a sweat in a hot field while keeping social distancing. And the best part, they keep their smiles through the day, even behind face masks, for the sheer joy of working hard on the land. Meet John, Hans, and Henry, three of our regular helpers. Three entirely different personalities and yet all very conscious of the ethics of good food. I'm proud to have them work for us.
About the farm
We are a small family farm located in Grottoes, Virginia, serving the city of Harrisonburg and the counties of Rockingham, Augusta, and Greene. We produce high-quality food using sustainable practices and ethical principles of care for the common good. Having witnessed the healing power of good food in dealing with family health issues, we started farming in 2015 in an effort to sharing with others the benefits of fresh, nutritionally-dense food, grown in a clean environment, using integrative agricultural methods. We believe that in order for food to be healthful, the environment in which it grows has to be healthy. To that end, we integrate animal and plant systems in ways that, in their natural interactions, they create an ecological balance leading to abundance and quality.
We grow over 50 different vegetable crops, perennial vegetables and fruits, and raise pastured pork, as well as ducks and chickens, for meat and eggs.
