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)
If you are a Connecticut resident who is interested in a reduced cost CSA share, please visit the Farm Share Program page to learn more and to search for a participating farm.

CT NOFA Launches Equipment Share Program
CT NOFA is proud to announce the launch of our Equipment Share Program. In partnership with The Hickories in Ridgefield, Connecticut, this program aims to provide both commercial farmers and home gardeners free access to both specialized equipment and expertise in a shared environment. Equipment Share days at The Hickories will include free soil analysis, seed winnowing services, nut cleaning, compost tea brewing workshops, and much more.
Advocacy News: May 2026
The Good News: CT Senator Chris Murphy has introduced a bill (bipartisan and bicameral) to increase funding for Agricultural Management Assistance to $30 million and to expand the eligible uses for these funds to include “soil health improvements, composting, implementing organic farming, and food safety certification in addition to existing authorized uses such as water management structure and soil erosion control.” Let’s thank Senator Murphy for introducing this bill!
The Bad News: The Farm Bill passed the House of Representatives on April 30, despite 320 food, farm, and conservation organizations, including CT NOFA, voicing our opposition to a bill that does not fix SNAP, does not support new and beginning farmers, and does not adequately support conservation programs or organic agriculture. Now it goes to the Senate and we need to urge both of Connecticut’s Senators to reject this Farm Bill.
