JOIN THE BRIMWOOD FARM CSA


WHAT IS A CSA?

Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) put quite simply is a vegetable box scheme. However, rather than paying week by week for the box of locally grown goodies, you pay upfront. This helps the farmer (ME) enormously as I can buy seeds, get the season going and ensure I grow the right food for the boxes. CSA’s are often called shares, as you’re purchasing a ‘share’ in the season’s farming.

My CSA runs for 20 weeks and boxes cost £10. So you pay £200 upfront but there are no further payments (unless you want to add additional products) and can sit back, relax and enjoy almost six months of vegetables. The first box will be produced for June 1st, 2025, with a weekly box until the last box on October 5th, 2025.

If you want to support your local farmers and eat sustainably grown produce, then a CSA can be a great option.

My CSA vegetable box scheme is available in Halesworth, Suffolk, UK - IP19. Only purchase a share if you’re able to pick up from this location; either the farm or a pick-up point in Halesworth Town Centre

BRIMWOOD FARM’S CSA

My CSA is stocked with goodies grown on my farm in Halesworth, Suffolk. I practice regenerative agriculture - a method of improving the health of the soil and the surrounding environment. No chemicals are used and wildlife is welcomed. By caring for the land and growing in a non-invasive way, it means the majority of the farm can be left for nature - and I’m thrilled that we have a vast array of fantastic creatures from otters and bats, to snakes, lizards and turtle doves living here.

FAQ AND INFO

  • Weekly boxes are stocked with SEASONAL veg. This means you’ll receive only what I’m growing on the farm, and this changes week to week. I don’t buy in any substitutes which means you’ll get to enjoy a variety of British grown vegetables. These include but are not limited to; kale, tomatoes, squash, lettuce, spinach, radishes, cucumbers, herbs, beans and more.

  • Boxes are NOT delivered. They’re packed and stored on the farm and I have a collection day for you to stop in and pick up. This means you have the unique opportunity to see the farm, have a chat and be included in the farming community. Collection days are on a Sunday, though I’m flexible and can normally accommodate a Monday pick-up too.

  • CAN I SKIP A WEEK? Yes. You can skip up to two weeks, and will be given the cost of the box in credit. You can use this to buy extras (eggs, flowers, additional veggies) or to put towards the following years’ scheme. Or you could gift the week you’re away (on holiday, perhaps) to a friend.

  • Box contents will vary, with eggs and flowers sometimes included as part of the package.

  • CSA members will get the opportunity to join farm events. For example, instead of pumpkins being included, members may have the opportunity to explore our pick-your-own patch and get their own. Farm tours and talks will also be offered first to members.

LIMITED AVAILABILITY - THERE ARE ONLY LIMITED SHARES ON OUR SCHEME. THEY ARE OFFERED ON A FIRST COME FIRST BASIS AND DUE TO THE CSA MODEL, CANNOT ADD ADDITIONAL SHARES LATER ON.
