Shared Earth Farm CSA

131 State Road
717-884-4001

Your weekly pickup is filled with a variety of naturally grown seasonal items picked at the peak of ripeness. Large shares are portioned to feed a family of four omnivores for a week. We also offer medium shares (two omnivores) and small shares (one individual).

We have four seasons of CSA under our belt, and we are itching to begin our fifth one. We love growing food for our community members. Ranking second on our list of fun jobs is helping our members find other local foods. Our website offers more information about this.

We believe it is important to grow crops which are free of chemical fertilizers, herbicides, or pesticides. Healthy soil is the key factor in growing nutrient-rich foods. We use green manure, natural fertilizers, compost, and crop rotation to enrich the soil. Weeds are controlled with a tractor or by hand. Pests are controlled only when absolutely necessary using organically certified means.
