Wolf's Moon Farm is a fledgling market garden growing vegetables without pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, and synthetic fertilizers. Instead of costly chemicals I believe in using compost, mineral blends and plenty of good old elbow grease! The work is primarily done by my hands, with hand tools. I have just recently arranged a lease for two acres of land in Windsor, Ct. The farmer who owns thi

s land grows tabacco and feed corn. He grows his crops conventionally, however is leasing me a piece of his land which he hasn't worked, or treated with any chemicals in several years. Therefore I cannot become "certified organic", however I can develop an ecosystem on this piece of land which will support organically grown fruit and vegetables. The growing season of 2016 will be my first year in business. In preparation for this I am beginning to form a CSA to help support my new farming operation. I also plan to sell at 4 local farmer's markets and intend to develop accounts with wholesale buyers looking for high quality produce. My goal is to develop a thriving business on leased land until I can justify the purchase of my own farm where I can grow my business, expand my products, and become USDA Organically Certified. I have been planning, preparing and working towards this dream since I was a child, it's time to turn it into reality!

General information

CSA stands for "community shared agriculture" The general premise is that local residents who want to promote local agriculture buy a share of a farm's produce at the beginning of the season and then receive that share weekly throughout the season's length. The farmer uses the money from your pre-purchesed share to buy seeds and supplies for the farm before the growing season begins for this year. In essence, buy purchasing a CSA you are insuring your family will have a bountiful table of fresh locally grown produce throughout the growing season, while also supporting the survival of your local small farmer. Wolf's Moon Farm is in it's very beginning stages and therefore is currently relying on a small CSA to insure it's existence. As a foundation supporter you will secure your price now and I promise it will never change, so when my CSA prices go up yours will stay the same. As a small grower I am much more able to customize what I grow based on the demands of my best customers, who are my CSA shareholders, so please let me know if there is anything specific you would like me to grow this season. I will do my absolute best to please you! I will be offering CSA pickup at the farmer's markets I attend, as well as a pick-up at the local park very near my market garden. I also would love to serve the employees of area businesses and will offer a to drop off your CSA at your place of employment if at least 6 people at your workplace purchase a CSA share. So tell your friends, tell your family, tell your coworkers, and support support a young local farmer who would love to grow your food for you for the next 40yrs! Space is limited so contact me before all the available shares for this season are sold!
