Property Description

Full Table CSA is a farm business providing over 60 CSA members (CSA = ‘community supported agriculture’) with fresh produce year round. We do this on about 1 acre of cultivated land. Our farm is on the land at Common Ground Ecovillage where we are exploring how to be a model for new social futures that emerge in deep collaboration with living systems. It is our mission to practice small-scale ecological farming that is productive, accessible, and part of a larger shift in our food system so that we can create happy and healthy communities from the soil up!

Current production on farm - more info

We grow over 50 different vegetables throughout the year. We also experiment with a significant amount of staple crops like corn, peanuts, fava beans, and sorghum with plans to grow more. We have a few red wriggler worm beds that produce a lot of vermicompost for us and we may delve into selling worms in the future. We have almost 200 shitake mushroom logs inoculated, 142 are from this past December. A couple of fig trees finally yielded enough fruit to divvy out to our CSA members this summer.

Current and past farming practices

• Ecological production but not certified

Current and past farming practices - more info

We farm in some of the most ecologically supportive ways: minimizing tillage, all organic (though not certified), significant cover cropping, crop rotations, lots of diversity, and creating our own compost from local leaves to add organic matter. We are inspired by permaculture, organic market gardening, biodynamics, and more.

Additional aspects

Part of the 112 acre parcel that we farm on will be put into conservation easement, but not the area we cultivate.
