A FEW FRIDAY SHARES ARE STILL AVAILABLE! REGISTER TODAY! 540-635-8414

Mountain Echo Farm’s CSA is a wonderful opportunity for local families to eat healthy AND support a local small business.  Community Supported Agriculture is a partnership between the community and a local farm who provides shares of their crops at a set price on a weekly basis!  Read on to learn more about what shares are offered.

Even though the season has officially started, it is not too late to participate. There are a few Summer CSA spaces available on Friday pick up day (either full shares – every week for 16 weeks OR half shares – every other week pick up).  If interested please call 540-635-8414 or visit www.mountainechofarm.com to sign up or get on the farm mailing list for farm news about this year and next.
