Overview
Upland Hills CSA started in 2009, is offering a huge variety of vegetables and herbs raised using organic practices. Buy a share, and receive fresh produce through the growing season. Seedlings will also be available this year, so you can grow your own food at home.
The CSA is nestled in the center of the Upland Hills Learning Community, which includes the Upland Hills Farm, the Upland Hills Ecological Awareness Center, and the Upland Hills School. We are committed to an ecological approach to farming, integrating agro-ecological methods and habitat restoration into our production model.
The CSA garden is not public. However, The Upland Hills Farm, Upland Hills Ecological Awareness Center and Upland Hills School provide programs throughout the year, Those who order a CSA share can volunteer in the gardens, and will pick up their share at the Upland Hills Farm weekly.
