CSA Near Me: How to Find Local Farm Shares & Support Real Farmers
If you’re searching for a CSA near me, you’re not alone. More people than ever are looking for ways to eat fresher food, support local farms, and reconnect with where their food comes from. One of the best ways to do that? Join a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program.
In this post, we’ll break down what a CSA is, the benefits of joining one, and how to easily find local CSA farms using the Red Hen App—plus a few bonus perks you’ll get when buying direct.
What Is a CSA?
CSA stands for Community Supported Agriculture. When you join a CSA, you’re purchasing a share of a farm’s upcoming harvest. Typically, you’ll receive a box of fresh, seasonal produce every week or two throughout the growing season.
Some farms also offer add-ons like:
Eggs
Dairy
Bread
Meat
Herbs or flowers
CSAs allow farmers to receive income at the start of the season, and you get farm-fresh food regularly while supporting your local economy.
Why Join a CSA?
There are tons of benefits to joining a CSA program:
🌿 Fresher Food
The food is harvested at peak ripeness and delivered quickly—no long-distance shipping or sitting in storage.
🚜 Support Local Farms
Your dollars go directly to farmers instead of middlemen or corporations.
🧺 Eat Seasonally
CSAs help you reconnect with natural growing rhythms and discover new foods.
♻️ Reduce Waste
Less packaging, less shipping, and a lower carbon footprint overall.
🍳 Try New Things
You’ll be introduced to unique veggies, heritage varieties, and farm-made products you may not find at the grocery store.
