Farm Share Spotlight: Radical Roots Farm
February 16, 2024
Radical Roots Farm in Canterbury 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.
Radical Roots Farm is a small, veteran, and woman owned family farm located in eastern CT’s Quiet Corner. They raise heritage breeds of livestock in a biodynamic system for nutrient density and high quality proteins. In 2024 they plan to add more fruit and vegetables to round out their offerings.
Their full share consists of a total of 108 lbs. of the most delicious and healthy beef, pork, and chicken you will ever have. The quality of these proteins are sure to satisfy your craving for meat and will fill you up with well-raised and cared for goodness! A sample share might include 1 whole chicken, breakfast sausage, ground beef, beef short ribs, pork chops, bacon, stew beef, strip steak.
