About CSA:
Membership
As a member of the Elmer Farm share program, you will receive fresh vegetables, flowers and herbs each week for a total of 10 weeks. As a member, you will learn about where and how your food is grown and have the opportunity to participate in farm events!

Pick up at the farm
Each week you will come to Elmer Farm to pick up your vegetables. We are located conveniently on route 116 in East Middlebury. The vegetables will be displayed on tables similar to what you see at a farmers market or grocery store. Members will choose from a selection of vegetables to create their weekly shares. You will also have the opportunity to harvest herbs and cut your own flowers, a great activity to do with kids or a friend!  You can also look forward to special events at pick ups such as guest vendors, taste testing and more!

Produce
We grow more than thirty-five different vegetables and value the importance of growing heirloom varieties. You will discover a wide selection of eggplant and peppers, over 15 varieties of tomatoes and an exciting mix of greens. You can expect to try something new in your farm share. In addition to your weekly share of vegetables, you will also have the opportunity to purchase products such as meat and maple syrup from local producers!
