If you are in the area, feel free to stop by the farmstand for spring seedlings, produce, flowers, and our maple syrup products.

2023 CSA

We are proud to provide healthy produce to our community and are grateful for the overwhelming support of our CSA. Now more than ever, people want to know where their food comes from and be a part of local food security.  We help make that connection.

Our CSA is a way for you to eat well & know where your food comes from, but you are also part of something bigger: a local economy rooted in organic practices that not only feed the community, but also take care of the land & environment.

I just picked my share up and it is terrific! I just want to add, that your communication has been extraordinarily. We have participated in CSAs for about 10 years and have enjoyed yours the most. Thank you!

I want you to know how much I appreciate getting your fresh produce every week. It inspired me to cook healthier meals for my husband and myself.

I was given the gift of the CSA 3 years ago for Mother’s Day and have signed up for the full season every year since.

It is truly the gift that keeps on giving. In addition to my family having access to locally grown organic food, experimenting with new ingredients in fun and healthy recipes, I am now connected to an amazing community of like-minded people and eaters. I can’t wait to be part of Sandiwood Farm CSA again, and wish it was year-round!

I really enjoy the personal communication from Sara each week – it’s really wonderful to feel like part of the farm community! The quality of all the produce we receive is 10/10 – and we thoroughly enjoy all of it.

Early, Mid & Late CSA

Our goal on the farm has always been to feed and nourish our community (that’s you!). We’re making some changes that will allow you to come to the farm while meeting our CSA goal—providing you with fresh, flavorful produce and other value-added products.

Here’s what’s new:

  • We’ll offer a limited number of traditional CSA shares, operating in the way we have in the past via Sunday emails
  • We’ll also offer a new farmstand a la carte option
  • We are only offering farm pick up this year, I can help you coordinate if you want a rotational delivery to Rock Art or the Stowe Land Trust
  • Anyone can stop by the farmstand to shop Wednesdays through Saturdays, even without a pre-order. I’m only planning to harvest a few extra items to avoid waste, so a pre order is best

The A La Carte Option

  • You don’t have to commit to receiving produce every week.
  • You’ll receive my weekly Sunday email with google link to see what’s available.
  • You can order what you want when you reply through the link.

The a la carte and additional item prices will be listed weekly, pre-pay or weekly payments are accepted.

Greens, other produce, spring seedlings and more items should be available in mid-May. 

Please fill out this quick survey to let us know your interest in this season’s farm offerings.

*Note: If you or someone you know could use help paying for our CSA, NOFA-VT has funds to provide a discount for income-qualifying applicants. Learn more about the program and apply here.

CSA Option

You can also simply continue to receive our produce each week by signing up for one of the limited number of traditional CSA shares. You’ll receive my Sunday email to see that week’s produce, along with the google link of extra items you can add on.

This year the traditional CSA is $210 for the early season and $240 for the mid and late seasons. To receive all three CSA seasons, 18 weeks, will be $690.
