Urban Farm CSA PROGRAM
2024 CSA is sold out, however we invite you to shop our Farm Stand weekly.
CSA pickups and The Urban Farm Stand opens on June 20th and June 22nd. CSA pickups are Thursdays from 3 to 6 pm and Saturdays from 9:30 am to 1 pm at The Urban Farm.
Our food choices have economic and environmental impacts - both of which help support our local community. Enjoy this opportunity to support urban agriculture and help create more just and healthy local food systems with the purchase of a 21 week CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) share from Grow It Green.
Enjoy the amazing taste of freshly harvested in-season produce grown with no toxic chemicals in healthy soil following regenerative agricultural practices. Transport yourself at The Urban Farm in the center of Morristown at 31 Hazel Street, Morristown, NJ

2024 CSA pickup guidelines:
-
CSA pickups operate in inclement weather. In rare incidences of SEVERE, dangerous weather, we delay or cancel pickups with announcements made via social media and email when possible. We recommend following us on social media @gigmotown (Instagram) or Facebook for the most current updates.
-
Emails are sent weekly about what is available in your share and a recipe to help with meal planning.
-
Please bring a reusable bag/tote to load your veggies.
-
You get to assemble your share based on share level and produce desired based on the number of choises that week.
-
Once your share is complete, weigh and record the weight for our end of season records (this helps with planning for next season).
-
As a bonus, members can make their own small bouquet of flowers (when in season). Pruners are available at the bagging station for picking flowers. Please clean and return after use.
-
You may send another person to pick up your CSA - please let them know the name the CSA is under and if you have a Full, Half or Quarter CSA.
-
If you are unable to pick up you CSA share on a Thursday or Saturday of that week, you join in our efforts to combat nutritional insecurity because the food is donated!
-
We operate 100% outdoors.
-
Share what you are making at home, pictures of visits to the farm, etc. on social media (tagging us too please)! It is motivating and inspiring when we are working on those hot, summer days!
I love getting fresh produce locally. It lasts longer and tastes better than what I can get at the store, and there is a much smaller carbon footprint. Plus, the large amounts of greens and veggies encourage me to eat better. Grow it Green is the most affordable CSA I have found in this area, and I love supporting an organization that does so much to provide our community with healthy food.
Participating in Grow It Green's CSA is an amazing way to obtain delicious seasonal produce for a great price, support local sustainability efforts, and gain a sense of community. It is so much fun picking up your share each week. The Urban Farm is such a peaceful place to visit and many times, the highlight of my week.
