Unfortunately, growing nutrient-dense, delicious, nutritious veg using methods that are harmonious with nature isn't cheap! So we're keeping costs down as much as possible without compromising on quality: by minimising waste and maximising efficiency. This means that we do our harvesting, divide it all up into shares, and distribute it amongst the boxes. Having said all that, we understand that there’s things people won’t want. (Bob - we know you don't like kale!) That's why our main collection point in Gwynfe will have additional veg that people can swap out, AND we’re encouraging local gardeners to bring surplus to increase the volume and variety of veg available.

"CSA" stands for "Community Supported Agriculture". It's a farming model where members of a local community buy shares of a local farm's harvest in advance, supporting farmers and receiving fresh, seasonal produce. Paying upfront helps farms cover operational costs, sharing the risks and benefits of the harvest - and creates a direct link between farmers and the people who eat what they grow!

We are currently only able to offer 30 shares on a first-come-first-served basis, but we will certainly look to expand in future years if there is demand.

Sorry - we're not able to offer delivery a this stage. But the pickups are a great opportunity to build community connection, spend time together, and offer extras such as swap-outs and wonky veg!

If enough people want access to less frequent boxes, we will find a way to "split" shares of harvest for alternating pickup weeks. When you register your interest, let us know if this is something you’d prefer - because if there are enough people who want it, we’ll find a way to make it work.

We are looking for people to join the CSA with the intention of sticking around for the full year, but we also understand that circumstances change. Life happens, people move house… so yes, you absolutely can cancel, but we would simply ask that you do so with as much notice as possible. We will look to maintain a waiting list of people so that if-and-when one household needs to drop out, there is another one who can take over their subscription.

You have three options: 1. Have someone else pick it up for you. 2. If we have multiple collection points (on different days/times) you can let us know in advance and we'll bring your box to another time slot. 3. We can store it on the farm for a couple of days and you can pick it up another time. (We'll set up a cool box in a safe space.) If none of these work, we suggest being a super generous food hero and donating your box - we will give it to a local food bank or community kitchen on your behalf.

There are a few options available - so when people register their interest we will collect everyone's replies, and make a decision based on what’s most convenient for the group.

We will have a "swap table" for this exact reason, where you can exchange any items you don't like for ones that you do.

Swap it! If you’re a keen gardener and grow your own, perhaps get a smaller box, and use the swap and share options to adjust what you take home based on your preferences.

Absolutely not. We’re still looking to do the village potato field - the CSA is a separate thing. Existing members of the potato field will be welcome to swap their potatoes out at collection.
