Your CSA supports communities in NE, DC

Cultivate the City works with several local nonprofits, organizations, and school gardens to provide you with fresh produce weekly. We have a strong partnership with Gallaudet University, and your CSA share helps build nutrition programming and support for garden activities with young adults and youth throughout the DMV area. 

In addition, any extra produce that is not picked up or sold is donated to local food pantries weekly, reducing food waste and providing for community members who otherwise may not have access to healthy foods.

Thank you in advance for your support and we look forward to growing healthy, unique, and delicious produce for you and your family!

What is a CSA?

Community-supported agriculture, commonly referred to as a CSA model, is a system that connects the producer and consumers within the food system more closely by allowing the consumer to subscribe to the harvest of a certain farm or group of farms.
