What is CSA?
The CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) concept is a wonderful way to connect with our farm community and enjoy the flavors of the season here in coastal Maine. The CSA model supports our farm in the late winter and early spring with the harvests are small but costs for getting the season up and running are high. Participating in our farm share programs is a fun, engaging and affordable way to put more fresh, certified organic food on your table and to be part of a supportive and energetic community of your friends and neighbors.
We have retired our traditional pre-selected program. We hope that our free choice style CSA will provide you with a flexible, convenient way to continue to be a part of the wonderful community that has grown around Morning Dew Farm. We want to take the stress away from being part of a CSA and help you get the most for your dollar. If you love arugula you can grab a bag every week, and if you'd be happy to never see another head of fennel we've got you covered there too. Itching for the first tomatoes of the season? You don't have to wait until 100 ripen at once!
