The Willow Pond Community Farm community supported agriculture (CSA) has been providing organic vegetables to community members for the past eight years. They start this year off with a new farmer, Glenn Preston. Glenn is from Maine and has worked on Dari Farm in South Freeport.
New members, old members and anyone interested in joining the farm is invited to an informational meeting on January 22, at 2:00 pm at the Brentwood Library. Come meet the farmer and other members.
This year, members have a choice of either a full share or a part-share and can pick up their harvest starting June through October. There is also a very large “Pick Your Own” Section which includes endless tomatoes, herbs, green beans, flowers, peppers, chard and more.
Full shares are $550 and part shares are $325 part (about 60% of the full share.) Some of the vegetables include salad greens, scallions, squashes, cucumbers, tomatoes, basil, peppers, eggplant, garlic, carrots and pumpkins.
If you’re interested in joining Willow Pond Community Farm, please contact Joanie Pratt at willowpondfarmer@gmail.com.
