Shared Legacy Farms is a small, diversified farm on 2 acres in Elmore. It was founded in 2008 by Kurt Bench as a subsidiary of David Bench Farms (St. Rte. 2), and is a part of a family farming legacy that dates back over two generations. We deliver to the Perrysburg Farmer's Market, as well as the Jewish Family Services in Sylvania and our home farm in Elmore. Our CSA lasts for 18 weeks (June-October), and includes: a Full Organic Vegetable Share for $680, a Fruit Specialty Share for $390 that includes local fruits grown by neighboring farms, an organic Vegetable Half-Share ($340), and an Egg Share ($60). Average size of a full share each week is equivalent to 2 large paper grocery sacks, and is enough to serve a family of four for a week. Visit our website to download a registration form. Members also receive our popular weekly newsletter featuring recipes to try, tips for preparing or storing your produce, and general news about the farm. You'll also be invited to five special farm events throughout the season - Spring Planting days, Potluck Farm day with a Hayride Tour, Canning Classes, Bonfire and Stargazing with Pumpkin Hunt, Camping Weekends, and a Pea Pick.
