Cultivate Hope CSA Memberships for 2020

 

Register Now!Information:

A Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) share is a weekly produce subscription, but it is so much more than that. It is essentially investing early in the farm's season and reaping the rewards all year! What's more, a membership in the Cultivate Hope CSA is an investment in the development of a healthy food culture in Cedar Rapids.

Our CSA runs for 20 weeks from the first Market on May 14, through the end of September. We focus on the basics that you already know what to do with, but try to include something new and exciting every week. 

Beyond providing local produce, Cultivate Hope strives to create a thriving food culture in Cedar Rapids. We will be hosting fun events and classes on the farm through the season so you can really see where your food comes from and get to know your neighbors. Check out our Facebook page or website to stay up to date with these events!
