What is CSA?
CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) aims to connect consumers directly with local farmers. By purchasing a share of the season's produce in advance, CSA members directly support local farmers and receive a Harvest Basket filled with fresh, local, sustainably grown veggies on a weekly basis.
Why choose us to be your farmer?
As a non-profit, your food dollars go an extra long way at the Sharing Farm, as all CSA proceeds support our work to grow food for folks facing food insecurity.
We also have a vibrant space filled with long-time community members and great events and workshops — becoming a CSA member is a great way to become part of the Sharing Farm community!

CSA Benefits
Connect to your local food system, join a like-minded community, receive a weekly newsletter with seasonal recipes, and eat sustainably — all while supporting our work to address food insecurity and advance sustainable agriculture. We also provide perks like:
-
Farm tours
-
Cobb oven dinners
-
Strawberry u-picks
-
Workshop discounts
Another benefit of our CSA is our ‘swap box’. Each week we pack an extra CSA box for both Richmond and East Van to allow members to swap out an item from their box for an item in the swap box, as we know not everyone is a fan of every vegetable we grow.

New for 2025: East Van Pick-up for Friend of the Farm Shares!
Building on the success of using Tend Fresh Sheets to offer online ordering and pick-up at our CSA drop-off location in East Van in the Fall of 2024, we have decided to offer this option throughout the season for 2025!
How does this work?
-
At the start of each week, you’ll receive our Fresh Sheet via email.

Place your veggie order within the 2-3 day window (minimum $30 order).

We’ll pack your order on Thursday morning to ensure it’s fresh and ready for you.
-
Pick up your fresh produce on Thursdays between 5-7 PM at 2928 East Georgia St in East Van.
What is a Fresh Sheet?
A Fresh Sheet is a weekly list of the freshest, in-season produce available from our farm. Traditionally used by farms to sell directly to farm-to-table chefs, it’s a quick and convenient way to showcase what’s ripe and ready for the week. For our CSA members, the Fresh Sheet serves as an easy online ordering tool, letting you pick exactly what you want from the farm’s harvest.
