We are an on-farm CSA just south of Phoenixville, PA. We started in 2002 with a mission to provide our community with naturally grown, pesticide free food and to create a farm that members could call their own.

It is our hope that our farm creates an appreciation for the value of productive farmland in suburban Philadelphia.
