At our farm we sell Market Shares. This share allows you to buy any of our products: plants, produce, or garden supplies any time during the year. You can make your purchases at the farm or at one of our farmers' markets. The Market Share CSA works like a credit line for you. Purchasing a share at the beginning of the season provides us with start-up capital to buy seeds, seedlings, planting materials, and fuel for the greenhouses.Besides purchasing organic produce and other products at a 10% discount, members are invited to take part in life on the farm through events such as volunteer workdays, educational workshops and potlucks. A newsletter published three times a year keeps you informed about farm happenings, delicious upcoming crops and tasty recipes. We also plan to send out timely email reminders to keep members better informed regarding crop availability and upcoming farm events. You are also invited to come out to the farm for a visit or tour any time during the growing season.

Finally, your participation also helps to underwrite our commitment to the greater community by providing fresh, organic food for those who are served by the local emergency food system and our efforts in our community and school gardens.A Rippling Waters Market Share CSA Membership cost $100.00 per share, thus giving you $110.00 worth of products per share. For a complete brochure or to purchase your share either call Julee or Richard at 207-642-5161 for a form, or visit our website to purchase online or to printout one and mail it with your check. Please include your e-mail address, because we'll be sending you short announcements when new products, produce, and plants become available.

Rippling Waters Organic Farm is a small certified organic farm located on the banks of the Saco River in Steep Falls, Me. Our sustainable and permaculture practices make it a wonderful place to visit and learn about these gardening techniques. We offers organic vegetable seedlings, bedding plants and perennials, and a wide variety of organic produce which is sold at the farm, the Portland and Bridgton farmers markets and to wholesale accounts in the greater Portland area. We also offer a market CSA which allows members the flexibility to choose when, what and how much they want.
