Visitors are welcome to stroll in the Community Gardens, walk along our trail system, explore the Welcome Center, shop in the Farm Stand and use our picnic tables to eat, drink and relax on!

What does CSA mean? CSA is an abbreviation for "community-supported agriculture". Community-supported agriculture is "an arrangement to buy food that is grown or produced by local farms and businesses". Community members purchase a weekly share of fresh crops from a local farm- this is a great way to eat seasonally and support local!
