Boulder Knoll Community Farm

Our CSA is currently full for the 2013 season. Please add your name to our waiting list, and we will let you know if any shares become available.

CSA stands for Community Supported Agriculture, but we also like to think of it as Community Building Agriculture.

• We provide healthy, local vegetables and fruit to 68 shareholders, local soup kitchens, and a New Haven restaurant. We hope you try some new vegetables, meet some new people and learn something new about nurturing food plants. Find out more about our CSA ->

• Education is a central component and an essential element in the vision of the Friends of Boulder Knoll, the farm’s sponsoring organization. Our goal is to emphasize essential links between people, plants, and the earth, to develop interdisciplinary learning, and to promote environmental responsibility.

• We believe that exposing the community, especially its youth, to the wonders, importance and value of agriculture, conservation, and outdoor recreation is critical to fostering future stewards of the environment.

• We try our best to run the farm in a sustainable manner. We do not draw electricity from the grid and do most of the bed preparation, planting, cultivating and some mowing with hand tools. We consider and incorporate permaculture practices. The farm is not certified organic, but we adhere to organic growing standards and have signed the Farmer’s Pledge, a commitment to farming, marketing and farm management in accordance with sound ecological and economic principles.
