Farm Share Spotlight: Northwest Corner Farm
March 5, 2024
Northwest Corner Farm is participating in CT NOFA’s Farm Share Program, which provides reduced cost Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) shares – also known as farm shares – to Connecticut residents in need of financial assistance.
Northwest Corner Farm is a small farm in Winchester, CT. They grow vegetables, herbs, maple syrup, honey, and mushrooms using organic, regenerative practices. They care deeply about being part of and supporting their local community, as well as the sustainable food movement. Their 2024 CSA program will run for 18 weeks, from June 14 until October 11. Shares include a variety of vegetables and herbs, with a few additional goodies included depending on the weather. Members receive a weekly newsletter with the list of share items, storage and preparation tips, and recipes.
If you are a Connecticut resident who is interested in a reduced cost CSA share from Northwest Corner Farm, visit their website to apply for a share.

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.
Our Vision for a Future of Resilient, Plentiful, Healthy and Locally-Grounded Farming and Food
In concluding its annual retreat, the Northeast Organic Farming Association Interstate Council (NOFA IC) reaffirms the values that have grounded our work for 55 years.
Our vision is that every person is able to live their life with healthy food, clean water and air, community, livelihood, dignity, and purpose within the means of our life-giving planet. We seek that vision on every level, from our households and farms to our communities, states, bioregions, nation, and world. For that vision to be fulfilled, every person, no matter their origin or circumstances, must have all their basic human needs met without degrading the air, water, soil, ecosystems, and climate which we have been given and on which we depend for our lives.
