Local Produce, Delivered to Fox Point

Community Support Agriculture is a great way to get fresh vegetables throughout the growing season.

Get 21 weeks of locally-grown, fresh produce with the Rare Earth Farm Community Supported Agriculture share program.

Each week, starting in mid-June and ending in November, the Belgium farm delivers boxes of freshly-picked vegetables—enough to suit between two and four people for a week—to Fox Point for pickup. Find our more about Rare Earth Farm's produce selection

The early deliveries are lighter in weight and volume, the farm says on its website, with more choices and amount as the season progresses.
