Loess Hills CSA


We are forming a collaborative CSA in Hancock-Carson Iowa. All the farmers involved are committed to producing nutritious, naturally grown vegetables. We have years of no-nonsense vegetable growing and are involved in local markets in our area.

A CSA works by offering "shares" to the public consisting typically of a box of produce each week. Interested consumers purchase the "share" entitling them to a weekly box of seasonal produce for the farming season.

Advantages to the Consumer: *Steady supply of local, ultra-fresh produce. *Exposure to new vegetables and types of cooking. *The opportunity to visit the farm once a season. *Develop a relationship with the farmer(s) that grow your food.

Experience the difference of locally grown foods! With 2 Master Gardeners and another member farmer with a horticulture degree, we endeavour to give our customers what they want. Reduce your carbon footprint! Buy local!
