Bay Ridge CSA

Farmer Orientation Meeting

Time: 4:00pm, Saturday, March 25th

Location: 4th Ave Presbyterian Church (4th Ave between 68th and Senator St)

Depending on the day, it seems that either Spring is already here, or Winter refuses to let go! Regardless, THE 2017 BAY RIDGE CSA Season is forging ahead!!

Please join us for our Annual Orientation meeting on March 25th (details above). We urge all new members to attend, and strongly recommend returning members to attend, to hear about important updates to our CSA, partner farms, etc.

The highlight of our Orientation meetings is ALWAYS the appearance of Benjamin (B.R.) Shute, owner of Hearty Roots (our farm partner). At the meeting you can expect:

Update from the farm: including any important business developments, new initiatives, and most importantly progress report on the 2017 growing season!
Overview of “What is a CSA”: An overview of what a CSA is and why they are important, to both the farmer and also to our local Bay Ridge community
Overview of what to expect for the upcoming season.

New Fruit farm partner

Share Details TBD

It is with much regret that we announce that our longtime fruit farm partner Montgomery Orchards will no longer be supplying the fruit for our CSA. However, Hearty Roots has been working hard to secure a new partner, and has found one in Mead Orchards. Mead is a family run farm/orchard and will be a trustworthy and reliable partner.

Details of the Fruit Share with Mead Orchard will be announced once they are confirmed, and shares will be made available for members to purchase.
