What is Community Supported Agriculture?

Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) is a community of people centered around a farm. CSA shareholders give the farm financial support in advance of the season, and in return the farm provides a weekly share of produce during the growing season. CSA reconnects people to the land that sustains them and builds rewarding relationships between the farmers and shareholders. By joining a CSA, you can participate in the sustainability of a  local farm, foster renewable farming practices that enrich the earth, and enjoy an amazing diversity of delicious, nutrient dense seasonal vegetables.                                      

What it Means to be a Shareholder at Ollin Farms

To be a shareholder at Ollin Farms is to share in the risks and rewards of each farm season. To share the risk means that the season will not always be exactly as we have planned, that yields may be light, that certain crops may fail, that the mix will be different from season to season. To share the rewards means not just seeing a larger share when crops produce bountifully, but also to experience many of the intangible rewards that the farm has to offer. These include having a space to call “my” farm, getting to know your farmers, and having opportunities to connect with other shareholders. To be a shareholder is also to be part of a larger entity – a growing local, sustainable agriculture movement in Boulder County and across the country. We think of this farm as a place to grow food, to reconnect people to the land where their food comes from, to train young farmers, and to strive toward strengthening a community of people who are more locally self-reliant.
