Ancient Oaks Homa Farm

Taylor Logsdon'slove of farms and gardens was first sprouted in northern Ontario on summer trips to his uncle's farm in the Canadian Shield.  He has worked and lived on Homa farms around the world and is a certified Homa Therapy teacher, specializing in Homa farming. Adam Kandelis a passionate and experienced farmer who has been learning the art and science of growing organic and sustainable foods from masters around the world and from the land for a decade. He feels completely at home and believes fully in combining spirituality with farming,  which is the essence of our farm. What is CSA?In Community Supported Agriculture members pay in advance for a share of the ongoing harvest. By becoming a steward of the land, you are actively participating in a collective effort towards sustainability. You are ensured a portion of truly nourishing, locally grown food. Every week from June through November, members receive a variety of freshly harvested vegetables. Since the nutritional value of produce declines significantly while on supermarket shelves, as a member you will enjoy the freshest, most nutritious produce available. With Ancient Oaks CSA, you can become involved by supporting our farm, knowing where and  how the food is grown. You will share in the rewards and the risks experienced by the farm community that are inherent in agriculture. This means that in years of environmental or weather constraints, members may receive more of one crop but less of another. What’s in a Share?A share at Ancient Oaks CSA consists of a weekly pick-up of a bountiful variety of sustainably grown vegetables, invitations to farm events, and the opportunity to volunteer and learn on our farm.     Receive a list of veggies to expect on next pick up,  and a recipe, that will incorporate one or more of that weeks produce so you can plan your shopping beforehand. We grow a good but not overwhelming variety of popular vegetables with a focus on fresh salad items. If you like to eat fresh and delicious, local produce every week but don't like having to figure out what to do with rutabagas or kohlrabi then our share is for you! Our season runs from the first week of June to the end of October; a total of 22 weeks.  There is a possibility of items before and after those months - depending on weather, and what the land gives us. $375 covers a half share, and for this you will receive 5-7 types of veggies each week (multiples of each item); roughly $17 per week of fresh, local, organically grown veggies. We recommend the half share for 1-2 people.  $625 buys a full share, which will consist of almost double the amount of produce as a half share, roughly $28 per week. Recommended for a family of four.  This is REAL FOOD: gorgeous, varied produce that has been lovingly grown from seed to harvest. Although we are not a certified organic farm (due to costs associated with the title and us being a small start up farm) we practice organic methods. We use organic seeds, organic compost, and do not use any pesticides or fungicides, organic or otherwise! Ancient Oaks isn't just another farm; we are a community of people committed to bettering the planet. We practice daily ayurvedic fires on the property for purification of the atmosphere and are committed to ahimsa (compassion, non-violence) on our farm.  The resulting environment nourishes the people, animals and plants who live here, including the food we grow for you!
