“Eating is in agricultural act.” -Wendell Berry

What is a CSA…?

CSA stand for “Community Supported Agriculture”, and it is a way for eaters and farmers to connect to & support each other for an entire growing season.

CSA shareholders sign up early in the year, and pay for their whole share (or a deposit) which helps us, as growers, cover the costs of running a farm (seeds, compost, labor and more). And as we begin to harvest produce, it goes to our shareholders on a weekly or bi-weekly schedule, usually May- October. You quite literally receive a “share” of our harvest.

The BUG CSA. . .

  • our CSA usually runs for 22 weeks, May 28 - Oct 22

  • we offer weekly, or bi-weekly shares

  • pricing is TBD, but will probably be around $682 for bi-weekly shares, and around $1364 for weekly shares for the full season.

  • Most shares include between 6 and 15 different vegetables, greens and herbs. We say our shares will feed 2 to 4 people/week — depends on your level of vegetable obsession.

  • The variety and quantity will change with the season —see the crops we grow here!

  • Pick ups are on Thursday evenings, deliveries thursday mornings

  • We will offer 3 pick up sites in Salt Lake City:

    1. Glendale 1415 S Cheyenne Streeet (at the farm)

    2. Wasatch Hollow Park

    3. The Avenues

    We also offer a home delivery for $12/delivery!

  • Shareholders can reschedule their shares if they are out of town or unable to pick up at no additional charge

The CSA partnership is so much more than just a vegetable subscription — it is an exchange that acknowledges both the risks and rewards in small-scale agriculture. If we lose our entire crop of tomatoes, for example, , then our shareholders understand they will be taking that risk on with us, and foregoing tomatoes for the season. And on the flip-side, if we’ve got a bumper crop of peppers, you know you’re gonna get some of that!
