Thank you!
Eat seasonally and healthy with us while exploring edible flowers and medicinal herbs! Every week of our CSA provides a glimpse into our season at the farm and include vegetables, herbs and edible florals for you to enjoy at home. Each weekly delivery is focused on always including the trio shown below, while also highlighting multitudes of use for each and every plant. An example box during mid-Summer might include: a salad of amaranth, arugula and dandelion, nasturtium flowers, heirloom tomatoes, spicy and sweet peppers, musk melons, basil, flowering dill, and the unique fruit of a plant that we have been doting on!

We have endless gratitude to our community for supporting local food & farmers.
What is a CSA?
CSA stands for Community Supported Agriculture. CSA’s are designed to benefit the farmer and the consumer by leaving out the middle-person (big-box markets) and directly providing customers with farm fresh, seasonal produce. You are participating in making your local food system and local community stronger when you purchase your CSA. Each member will receive a snapshot of the vegetables we have growing at that time. Your weekly delivery is called a share because of yours and our mutual investment in the land and the food we are growing upon it. You put your trust in us and the Earth to provide you with nutrient dense food when it is naturally at its peak flavor.

What to look forward to:
Greens
Greens go by in a flash in our homes. Not only are they the most nutritionally dense when just picked, but are delicate in travel and storage, and desire to be enjoyed immediately, with flavors ranging from sweet to bitter. We will provide you with a myriad of greenage to be used fresh, in smoothies, pozole, rolling, pesto-ing, sauteing, steeping, braising, or baking purposes. We promise you will never have to settle for a sad salad again.
Seasonal
These are the staples, the stars (Dolly Parton), the golden hour of the season that you can depend upon. Think Radishes and Snap Peas in the Spring, Cucumbers and Melons in Summer, Tomatoes, Basil and Squash in Autumn. These familiar faces give the opportunity to recreate family heirloom recipes, practice your home canning and jamming skills, and hug all your nostalgic feelings. No surprises, just farm happiness.
Weird
We’re a little weird and want you to get weird too, in the kitchen and with your food (and everywhere else). Agriculturists have to be adaptive and at any given time we are trialing or experimenting growing new, unique foods at the farm. These are items that you may only see once in the season, are unique or heritage varietals connected to a story, things that take a looong time in the field before you can bring them to the table, or something you may have never heard of before.
We are offering Weekly or Bi-Weekly shares of organic, seasonal produce for the season of 2026. Shares will begin Wednesday, June 3, 2026.

Autumn CSA
Climate change has made the length of the growing season difficult to predict. Season extension is a critical part of a farmer’s planning, and we want to offer you part of the bounty that we grow for squirreling away into the depths of winter. Veggies, roots, and cold hardy greens that can be enjoyed immediately or later, this share is a month of late season crops, brought to your neighborhood pick-up location. October 7, 2026 through October 28, 2026 (4 weeks).
This option can be added to any CSA, or enjoyed on it’s own! We often include items from other community makers as available.

Floral CSA
Add sunshine to your home with a bouquet of annual and perennial flowers, herbs and grasses. One of the most astounding parts of farming is observing nature’s palette. We aim to complement that with our plantings of annual blooms and arrange them in a wistful and relaxed way. We won’t be offended if you pull flowers out of this bouquet to place around your home or business, or rearrange in whole.
This can be added to your vegetable share or enjoyed on it’s own! Weekly or bi-weekly option June 3, 2026 through September 30, 2026. Limited quantity available.
FAQs:
How do I know a CSA is right for me/ my household? A CSA is a beautiful relationship that a person can have with their farmer. It is typically designed for folks who:
Enjoy whole and seasonal produce
Enjoy cooking at home and trying new recipes
Have or desire a stronger connection to their food and Nature
Want to prioritize bringing their diet closer to home, both to benefit their local foodshed but also to benefit themselves through a reduced carbon footprint and increased nutritional density in their food
Have a close relationship to the integrity of food but perhaps don’t have the time, space, access or knowledge to grow their own right now
Please remember this arrangement is not for everyone! The goal is not to add stress to your life by bringing a weekly and unusual bounty into your home every week, but rather actively choosing to bring joy, health and fun flexibility with your vegetable diet while supporting local farmers!
Why do I have to pay for everything at once? CSA’s are an awesome model because it helps the farmer when they need it the most: right at the beginning of the year when they are managing seed and field input expenses. It also works for you, because you have prioritized your budget towards healthy food all summer long. If you anticipate difficulty paying for everything up-front, please e-mail us directly so we can do our best to accommodate your financial planning for local grown produce!
What if I do not live near one of the pick up sites but want to join the CSA? Please contact us at info@wildtrilliumfarm.com to see if your location falls within our delivery range. We would love to still be able to provide you a share, with an additional fee for delivery. Do not purchase online. We will send you a separate purchase link if we can deliver to you!
What if I really hate tomatoes? Well… first try a tomato harvested at the peak of it’s season and get back to us. However, if you have dietary restrictions or preferences, we encourage you to share it with friends who love them. Give joy in a gift. Each week will have a variety of tasty treats to enjoy, so you won’t feel left out either. Feel free to reach out about specific dietary restrictions.
