CSA is short for Community Supported Agriculture. It means you become part of Elkstone Farm, sharing in our seasonal risks and rewards. Here’s how it works: CSA shareholders make a small investment that directly supports the Farm’s mission to nurture regenerative, community-based agriculture. Shareholders then reap the bounty of each harvest—collecting a weekly box packed with the freshest seasonal produce and herbs from our Farm Stand in Strawberry Park. By joining the CSA you are showing your support for local, small-scale agriculture, making a better connection with the land, and being nourished by the most nutrient dense and freshest food around.

There are CSA Shares for both Summer and Fall seasons, so our neighbors who want to sample the whole delicious spectrum of foods should sign up for both. Since we intend the CSA to be a close-knit Farm community, we are also inviting shareholders to participate in Elkstone’s enchanting Farm-to-Table dinners (which will be held in pods and socially-distanced for now).

The Farm Stand, located in an picturesque red-roofed barn near Butcherknife Creek, is Elkstone’s community-oriented marketplace. It’s not just a store, it’s a gathering point—open just one afternoon a week so that neighbors can mingle and share in their support of locally grown food. It’s where CSA members come to pick up their weekly produce boxes and get first pick of fresh goodies. Then it’s open to the general public. At the Farm Stand we offer organically-grown produce, fresh baked goods, flowers, and longtime farm favorites like condiments, preserves, herb blends, and teas.  

CSA-Only Hours: Wednesdays, from June 16th to October 27th from 1 to 2pm

Public Hours: Wednesdays, from July 7th to October 27th from 2 to 4pm

Location: 40450 County Road 36 in Strawberry Park

What better way to celebrate warm, sunny days and the return of abundant harvests than with an enchanting series of Farm-to-Table dinners at Elkstone Farm? Our dinners feature farm-grown produce often picked that very day. These seasonally appropriate and nourishing ingredients are thoughtfully prepared and presented by chef Russell and sous chef Cassidy so the inherent beauty of each one is showcased. Locally and sustainably sourced lamb, beef, poultry or fish will round out vegetable-centric meals.

With each dinner, our chef takes guests on a magnificent sensory journey—allowing you to experience the gastronomic delights and culinary traditions of a unique place or time. Our gracious chef will enlighten us on the history and cultural significance of featured ingredients to tie in your plate with the landscape.

*Dinners are first offered to CSA shareholders on a subscription basis. If space permits, there may be single dinners available to purchase by friends of our guests.
