Wild Hare Organic Farm off of River Rd. They have seasonal/annual shares. We’ve been CSA members for a few years now.

Seconding wild hare! They’re super nice and in the summer time CSA members can also pick flowers and herbs.


unledded1968

That sounds wonderful. Thanks so much for the recommendation.


is_it_local

Yes! Wild Hare Organic farm is wonderful!


mariahn0tcarey

Pink Moon Farmer has an excellent CSA.


DreamSquid

I just signed up for their CSA! I haven’t gotten one before and I’m so excited. They have lots of pickup location options.


unledded1968

Thank you!

Not sure about a produce box (we used to get produce/groceries from Imperfect Foods and enjoyed it). I LOVE shopping at Sterino Farms in Puyallup, they’re currently closed for the season until April I think but worth checking them out then.


meesh137

Sterino’s is the best! They’re open from I think basically Easter to Christmas. They have a wide selection and I also can’t recommend their burger truck enough. Jake’s is a great hidden gem, enjoy!


ChickenBootty

Oh yeah those burgers are really good. Sterinos carries so many good products not just the produce. It’s nice they get to rest for a few months I selfishly wish they opened year round.


meesh137

I know! I wish it was open year round too but I also appreciate that they get time off. They deserve that!


unledded1968

Can’t wait to try it.


unledded1968

Thank you. I will check it out.


ChickenBootty

Forgot to add, Valley Liquidation on Pacific Ave gets mentioned a lot as a good place to buy cheaper produce but I haven’t tried it myself.


unledded1968

Ok cool. I’ll definitely stop by.


shadowzero313

ive been with helsing junction for years, they're further south but have a drop off in tacoma https://www.helsingjunctionfarms.com/


unledded1968

Awesome. Thank you. I will check them out.


jandlinatjari

If you’re on the north side, I’d recommend Share the Wealth Organics. They are a local urban farm collective that functions on the principals of shared land use and volunteer work! Their produce and eggs are suuuuuuuper yummy and a great value for your money


unledded1968

That sounds awesome. I’m going to be in hilltop so not too far away. I’ll definitely check it out.


jandlinatjari

Their website is a little out of date, but Sass (the lead) is usually pretty active on their Facebook and Instagram accounts.


unledded1968

Thank you!


Marik_Bathory

To me CSA has always meant Confederate States of America... so... fill me in here.


unledded1968

Haha sorry it means Community Supported Agriculture.


qawwalikitten

Local Color Farm & Fiber is awesome. They use Harvie app for info, scheduling, and ordering. I loved the ability to change up the order (for a small fee) and swap out garlic for extra carrots, for example, or add more kale. 


unledded1968

Thank you! I looked them up and looks like all the spots are booked up but i signed go for emails to see if anything opened up. They look really cool.
