ABOUT THE FARM This certified-organic farm conducts its CSA differently. Rather than the farmer selecting what members will get each week, you make your own choices from what's at the farm stand.
"Doing it this way gives the consumer more choice," says farmer Bill Halsey. "We do encourage members to try new things. Sure, we have people who will always go for the basics like broccoli, peppers and tomatoes. We also have those who want something unusual."
Hours: 9 a.m.-6 p.m. daily May-Nov.
