2025 Vegetable CSA

Our 2025 Vegetable CSA will go on sale in January! We hope you consider joining us for 20 weeks of certified organic produce and lots of other member perks!

Vegetable Share (20 weeks)
Every Wednesday, June - October
$500 (pay in full or in 2 installments of $250)

Each week you’ll choose 7 items from a wide selection of Bumbleroot-grown certified organic vegetables and herbs. Our team will harvest 15 to 20 seasonal crops and you can take your pick!

  • Wednesdays, 2:30pm - 6:30pm
    June - October
    Bumbleroot Organic Farm (Google Map Directions)
    196 Highland Cliff Rd. Windham, Maine

    • Our CSA costs $500 for 20 weeks, and we aim to provide 10% added value over the course of the season. That means our members receive $25-$28 worth of veggies per week.

    • Each week we will harvest 15 - 20 of the best crops available in the fields. We’ll be sure to include a wide selection of options including salad greens and cooking greens, roots, brassicas, alliums, herbs and seasonal fruiting vegetables.

    • Members can select 6-7 of their favorites from the offerings available! We will occasionally set parameters (“choose one bunched green” or “limit to 1 pint of snap peas”) but our goal is to provide as much flexibility as our seasonal crop selection allows for.

    • Our vegetables are typically portioned to the needs of 2 people (ie. 1lb. bunch of carrots, 1 pint of snap peas, 1/2 lb. bag of salad mix), so if you are looking for quantities to feed a larger family, you might consider purchasing 2 shares. This means you would take home 12-14 items each week.

    • Local Add-ons! We will have local products available for purchase at CSA pick-up each week including eggs, Winter Hill Farm cheese & yogurt, locally-roasted coffee beans, bread, and more!

    • 10% off Bumbleroot-grown products including seedling pre-order & in-person shopping at our Saturday farmstand all season long! This discount applies to seedlings, perennials, vegetables and flowers grown by Bumbleroot.

    • FREE U-PICK! We will have seasonal crops available for you & your family to pick yourselves! This is in addition to the items you receive in your share and is a great activity for the whole family to enjoy. U-pick crops could include herbs, green beans, cherry tomatoes, sunflowers and more!

    • Access to our *new* CSA Recipe Database. We’ve aggregated our favorite veggie recipes into an easy-to-use database organized by crop that only CSA members will have access to.

    • Bulk Pricing for seasonal items like wild blueberries, tomato seconds, peppers, etc. Great for freezing, canning, and preserving for the winter months.

    • Weekly CSA Newsletter includes a preview of the week’s harvest, cooking tips, recipes, and farm updates.

    • Walking Trails. We encourage you to walk around the farm during CSA hours! Well-behaved dogs are allowed on-leash.

    • Individuals and families who love to eat fresh, organic vegetables & herbs daily.

    • Folks who are flexible with what’s in their fridge & open to aligning their meal-planning with the seasonal harvest.

    • People who want to support our small farm and engage with Bumbleroot for the entire growing season! Your early investment helps us get our season started, and in return we feed you all season long.

    • Local folks who can commit to visiting the farm every Wednesday from June - October during pick-up hours (2:30pm - 6:30pm). If mid-week visits are tough for you, we also have a new Market Membership for our Saturday farmstand this year.

    • People who want to spend time at the farm! We encourage you to participate in our free U-pick offerings, walk your dog around the fields (on leash!) and explore the land we steward.

  • This year we are offering 1 share size which costs $500.

    • Pay in full ($500) - click here to purchase your share.

    • Pay in two installments of $250. Your first installment reserves your space in our CSA and the final installment is due by May 1, 2024.

    • Pay with SNAP/EBT and get 50% off! Payments with EBT cards are made monthly at CSA pick-up from June through October. The cost for SNAP/EBT customers is $50 per month. Please email csa@bumblerootorganicfarm.com to reserve your spot!

Our CSA Mission

The goal of our CSA is to build community and feed local families, and our CSA is truly the lifeblood of our farm. We hope to form strong relationships with people who are interested in supporting local farms and eating healthy food. We rely on the income from our CSA early in the year to get our season started - we use it to buy seeds, compost, tools and to pay our hard-working crew in the winter & spring months before we have veggies to sell.

In return, we work hard to grow high quality, nutritious food for our members all season long. Over the course of the season, we provide you with 10% more value in your share than you paid for, and pass along the bounty of peak season as we are able. When you become a member, you are helping to strengthen the local economy and build a more resilient food system for Maine. Thank you for investing in our farm!
