What is CSA?
Community Supported Agriculture (“CSA”) is just that – a community. We connect our CSA members with local, Northeast Ohio farmers, who provide members with seasonal, fresh produce directly from their farms on a weekly basis. Grace Brothers facilitates this relationship by coordinating and communicating with farmers, picking up the produce, and ensuring that it is ready and packaged for you every week. Through this partnership, CSA members know exactly where their food comes from (not far from home), and farmers have the assurance of knowing that a portion of their crops are feeding people in their communities.
About Our Farmers
Our CSA program incorporates over 20 farms and orchards within a 70-mile radius of Grace Brothers Nursery in North Royalton, one-third of which are Certified Organic. We support local farmers’ livelihood by purchasing directly from family farms. Plus, our communities benefit from this relationship.
