ENJOY THE TASTE OF THE SUN AT BRACCO FARMS EXPERIENCE “FROM FARM TO TABLE”
Bracco Farms
2018 Season Non-GMO Small-Batch CSA* When you join our Small-Batch CSA, we become your private farmer.
You will know who grows your food and where it comes from.
Small-batch producers infuse their product with a level of attention and passion that is
impossible for large-scale farms reproduce.
The basic idea
of Community Supported Agriculture*
is that a farmer grows for a group of members who have purchased “shares” in
the harvest. Members pay at the beginning of the season in March, when the
farmer most needs the money. When the crops start coming in June, the farmer
delivers a weekly assortment of vegetables, herbs and some fruit. This is not a
co-op, there are no wholesalers or distributors. 100% of your food dollars go
to the person who is growing it. You support sustainable local agriculture and
get freshly picked naturally grown produce at reasonable prices. In addition, you know
the farmer growing your vegetables and can visit the farm—establishing a
personal connection with your food supply.
In the early season there will typically be selections of peas, kale, arugula, spinach, lettuce, escarole, turnips, parsnips cilantro, basil, dill, parsley, etc. As the season progresses tomatoes, peppers, eggplant, squash, corn, onions, carrots, beans, beets, etc will be added.
