Massachusetts Organic Food Guide

Description

Natural Roots is a horse-powered family farm in Conway. We have been serving our local community with nourishing food since 1998. CSA member families pick up their produce on the farm from June through October, filling their Natural Roots tote bag with their own choice from the day's harvest. They may also pick our you-pick crops once a week at any time when they are in season. Shareholders may purchase a variety of locally produced goods including fruit, dairy, bread, and more from our farm shop as well.

The farm is a beautiful place where families love to gather and enjoy the fields, the river, and the tranquility and uplifting quality of the farm.

Products

We aim to raise nutrient-dense vegetables while building well mineralized soil rich with biologically activity. We also sell a number of organic products from other local producers, including Apex Orchard fruit, Chase Hill Farm cheese, El Jardin bread, Sidehill Farm yogurt, South River Miso, Katalyst Kombucha, Appalachian Naturals dressings, salsa, sauces, and dips, Real Pickles krauts, Boyden Brothers maple syrup, and Warm Colors honey.

CSA

In 2012 we will have shares for 220 families. A large share is about the size of a paper grocery bag and costs $565. A share is equivalent to about 2/3 of that size and costs $390. Low-income shares are available in limited supply. Flexible payment plans may be arranged. Sign-up forms can be downloaded from our website, or you can email us with your address and we'll send you a brochure.

Pick up days are Tuesdays and Fridays, 3:00-6:30 pm. The season runs from the first week in June through the end of October. As a shareholder you will choose from a large array of seasonal vegetables with which to fill your weekly share. We also provide the opportunity for you-pick crops such as peas, beans, cherry tomatoes, and raspberries. As a shareholder you will also have the opportunity to shop weekly for other locally produced goods such as bread, cheese, yoghurt, ice cream, beef, maple syrup, honey, miso, dressings, and fruit at our farm shop.
