Moonshadow Farm and Community Supported Agriculture (CSA)
We sell at farm markets in central and northern Wisconsin and have a CSA (Community
Supported Agriculture) program beginning in May with 9 drop locations. We
offer 4 CSA choices: a spring greenhouse share (eggs, salad greens, early
veggies), standard and large summer shares and a winter storage share. Boxes
include a colorful mix of farm fresh vegetables, culinary herbs, eggs and
our farm newsletter.
Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) Philosophy
CSA is a social model that connects you to food, land, and those
that tend the soil. It's an economic model that places your
food dollar directly in the hands of a family farm using organic practices. Organic agriculture respects the health and nutritional
value of your food while being friendly to our environment.
Flavor, Nutrition, Local Economy
CSA is a food system that emphasizes
flavor, nutrition, and local economy, and respect for the land.
Challenges and rewards of farming
There are numerous benefits of a CSA based food system. Besides providing fresh,
organically grown produce, a CSA farm provides the non-farmer with an understanding
of the challenges and rewards of farming. Members participate in the risks
and uncertainties of farming as well as the rewards of a bountiful harvest.
Having direct contact with the land can be a spiritually and physically rewarding
experience.
Steady Income
for Family Farmers
Family farmers can survive because of a guaranteed market that includes a dedicated
community of loyal customers, a steady income, and the freedom to experience
with new varieties and techniques. Belonging to Moonshadow Farm Benefits
you, your family, the local economy and the environment.
