2024 Farm Share Program Underway on Farms Across Connecticut
February 5, 2024
This year’s Farm Share Program is underway, and we’re excited to welcome both returning and new farms. The Farm Share Program reduces the cost of a local CSA (community supported agriculture) share for individuals in need of financial assistance, while ensuring farmers are fully paid. A CSA is a subscription (usually weekly) from a farm for a regular supply of farm-fresh veggies, dairy products, meats, bread, and more. This year’s current roster of participating farms is:
- Park City Harvest – Bridgeport (Donation link)
- Marble Valley Farm – Kent (Donation link)
- KDCrop Farms – Chaplin (Donation link)
- Massaro Community Farm – Woodbridge (Donation link)
- Little Ark Farm – Enfield (Donation link)
- The Hickories Farm – Ridgefield (Donation link)
- Radical Roots Farm – Canterbury (Donation link)
- Star Light Gardens – Durham (Donation link)
- The Village Farm – Gaylordsville (Donation link)
- Common Ground High School – New Haven (Donation link)
- Northwest Corner Farm – Winsted (Donation link)
- Sub Edge Farm – Farmington (Donation link)
- Adamah Farm – Falls Village (Donation link)
- Fire Ring Farm – Portland (Donation link)
- Sunset Farm – Naugatuck (Donation link)
