Shine Farm Share / CSA
What is it?
Community Supported Agriculture, or CSA, is a wonderful system for creating a mutually beneficial relationship between the producer, us, and the consumer, you! By investing in your local farmer at the beginning of the season with the purchase of a CSA share you allow us access to the capital we need to ensure the production of ethically grown, nutritional produce throughout the year.
In return for your investment in Shine you not only receive weekly fresh fruits and veggies, but you become a part of our farming family. Choosing a CSA with Shine is bolstering your community, supporting your farmer, and aiding the planet.
