Farm Share Spotlight: The Hickories
April 5, 2024
The Hickories in Ridgefield 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.
The Hickories grows a wide range and many different varieties of fruits and vegetables, from leafy head lettuce to crisp slicing cucumbers, from plump blueberries to aromatic basil, from juicy tomatoes to tasty garlic, and much more: there is something for everyone each week!
