Description

We are not certified organic, but grow using standard organic practices with an emphasis on building a healthy soil ecosystem to support healthy plants. The weekly share will provide a variety of vegetable side dishes and salad for four or five meals for two or three adults. The full-size shares consist of 8 to 12 items that you select from a wider variety of offerings. The Small Share gets 5 items. Your eating pattern will determine how much of your vegetable consumption is covered by a CSA Farm Fresh Food Club Share.

Our free-range eggs are available for purchase during pickup, as are free-range chicken, duck, and goose.

At Rehoboth Homestead, we choose varieties of vegetables for their flavor and nutrient content and our flowers for beauty and vase life rather than for their ability to withstand shipping. we take the stewardship of the land and animals entrusted to us seriously. We follow organic production standards as a minimum.Rehoboth Homestead free-range eggs have naturally-balanced nutrients, with bright orange yolks and firm whites. No medications, growth stimulants, or hormones are added to their feed.

Rehoboth Homestead pastured broilers, ducks (Muscovies and rare Golden Cascades), and geese (heritage Pilgrim and American Buff) also roam around and eat insects and plants. Again, no medications or hormones are added to their feed. Our animals have spacious shelters and get to roam within protective fencing. They are treated calmly and gently.
