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.  For our neighbors wanting to sample the delicious spectrum of foods, 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 a picturesque, red-roofed barn near Butcherknife Creek, is Elkstone’s community-oriented marketplace.  It’s not just a store; it's a gathering point for neighbors to mingle and share in their support of locally grown food.  At the Farm Stand, we offer organically grown produce, fresh baked goods, flowers, and longtime farm favorites, like condiments, preserves, herb blends, and teas.  

Hours: 3:00 PM - 5:00 PM on Tuesdays between July 5th and October 18th

Location: 40450 County Road 36 in Strawberry Park

Join us in celebrating the warm, sunny days and the return of abundant harvests at our enchanting Farm-to-Table dinner series.  Each dinner features 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 Cada to showcase the inherent beauty of each one.  Locally and sustainably sourced lamb, beef, poultry, or fish will round out vegetable-centric meals.

Guests will be treated to a magnificent sensory journey - providing an experience of gastronomic delights and culinary traditions of a unique place or time.  The history and cultural significance of the featured ingredients will tie in the plate with the landscape.

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

The Elkstone Chef's Table is the most unique dining experience in the Yampa Valley!  Eight guests have the pleasure of dining in the privacy of the Elkstone kitchen, while watching the chef prepare a five-course meal from scratch using ingredients from the farm and from the valley.  Enjoy exploring the culinary identity of Routt County and greater Colorado through each course of this bespoke dinner.  All dietary restrictions can be accommodated with advance notice.
