Wenham/Beverly CSA Farm Share Starts In June

BEVERLY, MA – The Food Project's Wenham/Beverly CSA farm share is back, starting on June 13. Long Hill Farm in Beverly and Reynold's Farm in Wenham will grow produce, herbs, and flowers for participants to pick up at Long Hill.

The farm share costs $675, and participants can pick up fruit, vegetables, herbs, and flowers every week from June 13 to the end of October. Most weeks will have a pick-your-own vegetable option.

Participants can choose from a Tuesday or Thursday pickup from 3:30 to 6:30 p.m. at Long Hill Farm in Beverly, and can pay the fee in up to five payments. The farm share comes out to less than $2/pound.

The food is grown at The Food Project's Reynolds Farm in Wenham, and at Long Hill Farm.

Forty perfect of the food grow on The Food Project's farms is donated or distributed to hunger relief activities and strengthening food access. The project employs 120 people between the ages of 14 and 18 on their farms.

SNAP benefits are also accepted as a payment option for the CSA. Every dollar in SNAP benefits spent on a CSA share gets an extra dollar in participants' SNAP account.
