How Our CSA Works

A full vegetable share from mid-August with fruit share and mushroom share

Pick up your share at the Church of the Heavenly Rest located at Fifth Ave and E 90th St.

Bring a large tote bag or a shopping cart to take your veggies home.

Upon arriving, sign in and take your vegetable share box along with any optional shares and marketplace items. 

Your vegetable share will arrive in a box, which is packed right on the farm to minimize handling of the vegetables.

All members are required to volunteer for one 2-hour shift during the 22 week season. During distribution we need help setting up tables, unloading the truck, signing in members, keeping the site clean, maintaining and closing down the site. 

If you are concerned about volunteering at the site, no problem. You would still be able to help us out with clerical work from home.

All produce remaining at the end of pickup is donated to Community Fridge 120 and Kingsbridge Heights Community Center, two mutual aid initiatives that help combat the health food disparity in Harlem and in the Bronx.

We will follow the latest CDC guidelines at the pickup site to help keep our members, volunteers, and neighbors safe. We appreciate everyone’s patience and cooperation!
