This year we are offering a CSA program, which stands for Community Supported Agriculture. CSA’s offer a way for consumers to buy local, seasonal food directly from a farmer and gives us, the farmer, a chance to get to know the people we grow for and educate them about agriculture today. CSA’s are also a great way to expose you and your family to new fruits and vegetables, cooking methods and offers a hands on experience with local agriculture. If you want to get your hands dirty, schedule an appointment and we will glad to provide a guided tour of our farm garden. Visitors are always welcome!
A Fahrmeier Farms CSA membership will entitle you and your family to a weekly box of produce ranging from six to nine different vegetables a week (some weeks more or less depending on the season). The quantity increases as the season progress, always enough produce to feed your family based on the size of the CSA you choose in your membership. You will also receive an invitation to our Tomato Day Festival; an evening filled with live music, tomato tastings, education about local produce, area chef’s preparing samples of tomato dishes and Chef Brad of Trezomare Restaurant located at Briarcliff prepares a delicious meal featuring our tomatoes and other farm grown vegetables. The event is located at our winery, Three Trails Winery at Fahrmeier Farm.
We added your name to our mailing list because you’ve visited us once or twice at a farmer’s market or at our roadside market just west of Lexington, MO. We’re currently farmer vendors at the Downtown Overland Park Farmers Market, Kansas City River Market and Briarcliff Village Market. Because you have patronized us at one of these markets we know that you are interested in “fresh, nutritious food” at the very best price available. That is why we are offering you an opportunity to become a member of our CSA. We have a limited number of shares available and will close the opportunity as soon as planting season begins.
Reserve your CSA today. If you’re interested please take time to read, sign and mail the contract with the joining fee by February 28th, 2010 as planting will begin the first of March. We will plant to feed the number of family members in our CSA’s to assure their share of our garden. We look forward to bringing you produce fresh from our family farm to your home!
