CSA Farm Share 2024 Season
The Hawthorne Valley Farm is happy to return to the Cathedral of the Incarnation this summer.
The Farm has a 350–member CSA and supplies organic and Biodynamic® produce to Columbia County residents and to the New York City communities of Garden City, Inwood, and Riverdale. Over 40 varieties of vegetables are grown on 16+ acres, and fruit shares from local farmers are also available. The CSA includes weekly delivery of produce for approximately 22 weeks.
The rewards of CSA membership are great: learning to eat seasonally, cooking and preserving new and interesting vegetables, celebrating the growing season at special events on the farm, and coming to feel a sense of connection to Hawthorne Valley and other farms in the region!
Join our CSA farm share by clicking here. We start in Garden City the first Thursday in June!
