SOUTH PHILLY

OUR C.S.A. IS NOW FULL OR THE 2022-23 SEASON!

WHAT IS A C.S.A?

C.S.A. Stands for Community Supported Agriculture. A C.S.A. is a unique way to become invested in a local farm's success and enjoy this success in the form of healthy, local, produce. A C.S.A. functions by Members purchasing a "share" from their farm in exchange for weekly produce. The money spent supporting a C.S.A. covers the expense of seeds, plants, equipment and much more.  This business model creates a more stable, sustainable lifestyle for the farmers. It is an opportunity to build a relationship with the people who grow your food and reap the yummy benefits! 
Hello!
Do you love your vegetables and hate to see the end of your local farmer's market as the seasons begin to change?
Join us at Fifth Month Farm for our 2022-2023 Winter C.S.A! 

We grow produce all winter long for you to enjoy in your 13 week C.S.A. share. 
Each week we put together a share for you that features a selection of our favorite vegetables in our fields, all grown right here on our farm in Mount Joy, in Lancaster County. 

The vegetables we grow in the winter are highlighted by wonderful cooking and salad greens, storage onions, leeks, lots of beautiful root vegetables, such as carrots, many varieties of potatoes, beets, radishes and more! Selections will vary throughout the season. Scroll down below to see an example of a what a share might look like one week.
