We are currently taking 2010 CSA sign-ups.
2010 CSA information:
- If you would like to support local agriculture and know your farmer, then you would love joining our Community Supported Agriculture “CSA”.
- By joining our CSA, you are supporting the preservation and renewal of the environment, your health and well being, and of course tasty, fresh produce grown on our farm, just minutes away.
- Our CSA embodies the basic principle of pairing local people with local agriculture. When you commit to our CSA you are joining a community in supporting a local farm by purchasing advance shares of the farm’s 2010 coming season’s harvest. Our CSA is a wonderful relationship that benefits both the community and the farmer by allowing you to partake in high quality produce, while insuring the farmer’s livelihood.
- You will get to taste the bounty of a full 20 week season of delicious produce from Mountain Meadows Farm--simply by picking up your weekly basket. Check out our crop calendar for what we are growing, everything from strawberries and raspberries, to peaches, tomatoes, corn, beans, melons and much more. We plan to begin the Summer program on May 13th and it will run for 20 consecutive weeks. All of our produce is fresh-picked, washed and promptly delivered in order to ensure maximum freshness, ripeness and flavor. Share boxes will be delivered to convenient pick-up points (Market Square Farmers Market in Knoxville, and Norris Farmers Market, others TBA in Oak Ridge, West Knoxville, and East Knoxville).
Full share $600 ($30/week) 3-4 people
Half share $400 ($20/week) 1-2 people payment can be made in full or in two payments
We are currently taking sign-ups! Please email us for further information. More details and online sign-up form coming soon!
This is the cover crop of Sudan grass we planted to enrich the soil, after plowing up the strawberries in June. We plowed it under in September and planted the strawberries that will begin producing next April.
