Thank you for deciding that the local farmer matters to your community. In the last two months we've experienced an outpouring of affirmation and support from our CSA members and farm supporters, that has given us not only financial resilience in these crazy times- but also a deep sense of value to the world. (And that is no small thing).
We are here for you this season. Thank you for believing in us.

Why CSA Membership?

CONNECTION
Your Root 5 Farm CSA membership gives you a direct connection to the people growing your food, and helps support our regional food system in the Upper Valley. SAVINGS When you become a CSA member of Root 5 Farm, you'll receive a regular supply of fresh organic vegetables each week at a significant savings over retail. FRESHNESS There is no comparison to the quality of vegetables harvested fresh from the farm to your table! You'll taste the difference! HEALTHY & CREATIVE Having a regular supply of farm fresh organic food is a great way to eat healthier meals and help you become a more creative cook. Don’t worry, if you're new to eating with the seasons, we'll teach you how to cook with lots of vegetables! We have loads of recipes and culinary tips to share! CLEAN & SAFE Food that is minimally handled and travels shorter distances has fewer points of contact, making it safer. We have a small crew that follows strict food safety protocols as part of our CAPS certification (Community Accreditation for Produce Safety) through the Vermont Vegetable & Berry Association. |
