what our veggie box members have to say about their experience.
“The
average food item on a U.S. grocery shelf has traveled farther than
most families go on their annual vacations.”
Barbara
Kingsolver
"The
food you eat can be either the safest and most powerful form of
medicine or the slowest form of poison."
Ann
Wigmore
If
you have a connection with the farm, if you’ve actually walked on the
soil of the farm, it nourishes your soul.
Nigel
Walker
When
it becomes a revolutionary act to eat real food, we are in trouble.
Mark
Hyman
"Cultivators
of the earth are the most valuable citizens. They are the most
vigorous, the most independent, the most virtuous, and they are tied to
their country and wedded to it's liberty and interests by the most
lasting bands."
Thomas
Jefferson

Why
Choose Us?
Obviously,
every CSA is not the same. What is a dream match for one member may be
a total disaster for the next. So it's important that you find a CSA
with a set of values and style that you are comfortable with.
So, what makes the Chimney Creek Farm CSA veggie box program a good fit
for you?
We
grow vegetables to their highest potential: organic standards,
freshness that we measure in hours not days, and nutrient dense.
Vegetables and herbs bursting with flavor and freshly harvested from
our fields directly to you.
But every CSA should aspire to that we think.
So
here is what sets us apart from the rest: It's more than just the
veggies. Yes, the vegetables are important but so is the "more" part!
Our philosophy is not to dump a bunch of veggies on you each week and
say good luck.
Think of your veggie box as a journey and we will be right beside you
every step of the way.
We're all about great tasting vegetables combined with great tasting
recipes that makes eating seasonally a joy. And all the information,
hints, and tips to help get you into the groove and enhance a healthy
lifestyle.
Here is how
we accomplish that:
- We
are a real CSA farm - Community supported agriculture is all we do. The
produce we grow goes to our members. No worries about whether the
farmers market, a restaurant, or the wholesale market got better
produce than you did.
- This
is a small family farm - We don't scrimp on customer service. Have a
question? Talk directly to the farmers! We provide personalized service
to all our members. You won't compete with any one else for our
attention.
- We
offer free pick up on the farm or for a small fee home/office delivery.
Anywhere in the Grand Rapids metro area (all suburbs included) plus
parts of northeast Kent County.
- No work on the farm is required.
- Each
week you get a picture and recipe filled newsletter that details what
the veggie box includes and how to handle and store your produce. New
recipes
for each vegetable. We also share news from the farm and cover events
and happenings in the local West Michigan food and farming community.
- We give back to the local community - We donate
excess produce to local food pantries.
- Easy sign up and payment options. Lock in your
veggie box with only $100 down.
- We
invite our members to come to the farm for a tour at the start of the
season and celebrate the end of the season with a free pumpkin day for
your family.
- You
will also have access to our Pinterest online recipe, cooking and
storage tips database. You won't believe the cool things we are finding
out there. New stuff every week. And as you know - free!
- You
are also invited to join us on Facebook. Each week we post a picture of
that weeks veggie box along the names of the vegetables. And lots of
sharing
of all things relevant and not so much.
