Member Review:  "I Cannot say enough good about Providence Farm! We LOVE partaking in the CSA and getting our share each week is so exciting. We have been CSA members for years now. Ryan and Andrea are amazing to work with and the process is just so easy!! I am always encouraging everyone to check out this wonderful CSA opportunity!"  Amanda Leinonen Evans

Only at Providence Organic Farm do CSA members have choice about what goes in your veggie box, which weeks you'd like, your delivery spot AND the option to add berries and pastured proteins. We also offer honey from the bees that live and play on our farm, and more... all delivered to your pick-up location.

CSA members can put their share on hold, switch sizes and delivery points any time throughout the season.  We just need two days notice.

We pride ourselves on excellent customer service, answering questions and emails ASAP to ensure a seamless and excellent relationship.

CSA members are invited to farm events & classes.

We (farmers Ryan & Andrea) put our CSA members FIRST.  That means you get access to our best items even if that means we can't bring them to market or offer them to our wholesale accounts.       

Before you read on, you may be wondering if... our CSA delivers to your area?   View a map of our CSA pick-up points here.  If your town or private business is not on here, we are open to new delivery sites as long as there is enough interest.

Each Monday, Ryan & I send out the list of what we chose for CSA boxes via an email note, along with all the other items available, so you can switch out items and / or add items to your box.  We also give weekly recipes and storage techniques.
