How Our CSA Works

At Down to Earth Harvest, we honor the traditional values of the CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) model while offering a modern, flexible experience for our members. We are dedicated to extending the growing season into the winter months to support both our local farmers and our customers. With our CSA, you can shop across three distinct seasons: High-Season, Holiday, and Winter.

Our High-Season CSA operates on a subscription basis with limited membership, ensuring a personalized experience and direct access to the freshest, seasonal produce. For the Holiday and Winter seasons, we offer a more flexible model—no subscription is required! Simply shop when it’s most convenient for you, and enjoy seasonal farm-fresh goods all year round.

At Down to Earth Harvest, we make it easy to connect with local food while supporting sustainable farming practices. Whether you're looking for regular deliveries or occasional seasonal shopping, we've got you covered!

High-Season Registration Begins February 1st

How it works:

Become a Member

  • Register through our online sign-up

  • Choose your pick-up location and order frequency

  • Make a $100 deposit to reserve your space (membership is limited)

Place Orders

  • Once our harvest season begins in May, members login each week to our online farm market to place their order for the week. The farm market is stocked with a range of produce from our farm and other local producers every Sunday.

  • Members choose the items they would like to purchase each week. Down to Earth Harvest uses organic production methods and curates chemical free and conventional produce from other trusted growers. All produce is source-identified with the producers growing practice listed.

  • We also offer a Farmer’s Choice option for members who would rather leave it up to us to curate a well-rounded share for them. This is a great way for members to trust a farmer to help them make eating well easy and delicious.

Pickup & Enjoy!

  • On pick-up day, our team packs your order in our reusable totes and deliveries to a neighborhood near you. Simply find the tote with your name, remove the bag, and stack the tote neatly off the the side. Your account is debited the following day.
