Vegetable CSA

Smokey House youthworkers produce our organic vegetables from seed to sale—they start seedlings in the greenhouse, transplant them into the garden, care for the growing plants throughout the season, and harvest, wash, and pack vegetables for customers. While engaged in demanding physical work, students learn about ecological cycles, mathematics, and teamwork.

At Smokey House, we strive to be careful stewards of the land. Our vegetables are Certified Organic by the Vermont Organic Farmers Association. We use no synthetic fertilizers, herbicides, or pesticides on our crops. Instead, we fertilize with compost and cover crops, practice crop rotation, and produce healthy plants which are naturally more resistant to pests. These practices, as well as your decision to buy food locally, reduce the fossil fuel needed to get dinner on your table.

Organic Vegetable CSA

We grow everything from arugula, broccoli, and corn to zucchini and select varieties for their taste, nutritional value, and ability to grow in our northern climate. Once each week from late May until mid-October (approximately 20 weeks) we harvest and deliver a selection of fresh, in-season vegetables. At Smokey House we plan the garden to produce as much variety as possible each week, given seasonal constraints. Actual vegetable amounts each week will vary depending on growing conditions. We expect our full share to feed a family of four to five and our single share to feed 1 to 2 adults. For more specific information about what vegetable varieties or quantities to expect in your CSA share, please feel free to contact us.
