CSA PROGRAM AT BETTER FARM: 2026 signups coming in March!

Better Farm's Community-Supported Agriculture program offers local residents weekly shares of fresh, organic produce and prepared foods at a fraction of the cost of store-bought fruits, veggies, baked goods, and eggs.

When you join a CSA, you're buying a “share” of produce from a particular farm or group of farms. Each week, we invite our CSA members to visit Better Farm to pick up a week's worth of fresh food. The program runs from late June through the end of September, about 14 weeks, to accommodate the summer season here. We are happy to offer prorated plans as well (please contact us to set something special up!). We also offer “a la carte” sales of what what we have available throughout the year (also available at our farm stand on Cottage Hill Road—email info@betterfarm.org for an up-to-date list!).

Weekly share amounts fluctuate in accordance with what is in-season. Early-season shares are supplemented with home-baked or canned goods, salad greens, honey, eggs and asparagus; while a share in late September will be more robust with tomatoes, greens, herbs, Swiss chard, potatoes, flowers, pumpkins, leeks, and much much more. Because Better Farm's goal is to increase access to delicious, organic, healthy food, our CSA by design offers produce for less than it costs to drive to a grocery store and buy lower quality produce.

Those of you with special scheduling needs may contact us at info@betterfarm.org for a prorated plan.

Please join us for a very special fundraising event from 6-9 pm Saturday, May 30, for Better Radio, Redwood’s first-and only!—radio station.

The event is hosted by our sister organization betterArts, a Redwood nonprofit increasing access to the arts and owner-operator of Better Radio. There is a suggested $10 donation to attend (day-of or in advance) but no barrier to entry. All are welcome! If you’re interested in performing in the open mic portion of the evening or donating an item for our silent auction, please email info@betterarts.org.

Thanks to @shearreliefllc for another set of sweet summer ‘dos for the alpacas 🦙 Did you know alpacas hate hot weather? They’re very sensitive to high-temp days so annual spring shearing is a must for these beauties. The fiber gets processed by regional mills and is available in our Etsy shop! All fiber sales go directly back into the care of these camelids. You can check out that gorgeous yarn at www.etsy.com/shop/BetterFarm

Children of all ages are invited to join us from 11 a.m.-12:30 p.m. this Saturday, May 2, for a free tree-planting event at Better Farm. We will be planting 50 red maple saplings, courtesy of New York State’s School Seedling Program, while teaching about ecosystems and the valuable role that trees play. Planting and tending these trees with young people offers a hands-on way to understand natural systems, observe their environment, and learn key vocabulary. Learn more at betterfarm.org/upcoming-events and email info@betterfarm.org to register.
