Farm Spot is a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program started in Jackson Heights in 2006. A CSA program is a relationship between local farmers and their community.
Members of Farm Spot pay our farmers an annual membership fee to cover the production costs of the farm. In turn, members receive a weekly share of the freshest local produce during the growing season. The arrangement guarantees the farmer financial support and enables many small- to moderate-scale organic family farms to remain in business.
Ultimately, CSAs provide members with a wide variety of foods harvested at their peak of ripeness, flavor and vitamin and mineral content.
