  • Regular newsletters make budgeting and meal planning easier as well as giving guidance on how to prepare some of the more unusual items and easy tips on reducing food waste.
  • Membership benefits such as on-farm discounts and FREE admission to our activities cultivate a closer connection to our farm enabling you to take an active interest in knowing where your food comes from.

~Lori

“I loved the fact that we were eating food that was produced so close to home and in a small way supporting our neighbours.”

~Brian

The quantity, quality and taste of the contents of a CSA share far surpass that what you get from a grocery chain store shopping trip and contributing to the farmers that produce these goods is something we should support.

~Vince

“The quality and quantity always exceeds expectation and so thankful we have access to local food! See you next season!”

~Sarah

Being a CSA member gave me options and I did not have to keep running to the store.

-Daphne K

CSA membership allowed me to support local farmers which is very important to me. The price of the CSA enables me to enjoy fresh, healthy, local produce while I try to pay sky-high rent which leaves little funds left over for all other costs.

-Danielle G

CSA membership simplified grocery shopping, increased our vegetable consumption

-Mary-Elizabeth V

CSA shares are a convenient way to eat local and lots of produce

-Shirley Y

CSA Membership simplified and reduced grocery shopping. We worked with what we got and experimented with different recipes along the way to use up the produce we received. Elaine W

We loved visiting the farm play yard and animals! Our kiddos loved the little kittens and baby bunnies.  Last summer our daughter found a monarch caterpillar there, we took it home to protect it, and we released it after it hatched from its chrysalis. Janna W

-Janna W

Having the option of a monthly share last summer worked really well for us. It is just my husband and I. He is a picky eater so this option was great. Also the swapping option. Being emailed prior to the the pick up date of what is included in the share is appreciated

Forsythe Farms CSA was created by our son Daniel in 2012, shortly after he finished high school.  It was a way for him to be a part of our farm but have his own enterprise.

Daniel is the second generation of the Forsythe Family Farms 2009 Inc.  He is passionate about the success and growth of the local farm and community.  Dan is now working in the social services community.  He enjoys being involved in various local outreach programs.  In his spare time, he enjoys time with his young family taking them to visit local farms.

Daniel has handed over the management of his CSA to us, his parents at Forsythe Family Farms 2009 Inc.
