CSAs and Farm Shares 2024
Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) or Farm Shares is one way consumers can directly support local farms. All CSAs have different financial structures—some you pay up front to help growers buy seeds, animals, supplies or equipment for the season, others are pay-as-you-go to get first pick of each weeks harvest. Either way, your “community money” goes directly to the farm and helps to build a steady revenue base for the growing season and secures your supply of local meat, vegetables, herbs, and flowers for the season. Maybe year-round!
Local Farms and Ranches offering CSA programs around Greater Cincinnati, Dayton, Northern Kentucky, and Southeast Indiana. Most include either home delivery or designated pick-up days and locations.
If your farm currently has available shares or a buying club please join the list here.
