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.
