Sign up for Clarksville community supported agriculture

By Beth Robinson | May 21, 2009 |

Would you like to sign up for the Garden of Hope CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) Program?  CSA boxes will cost $20/week for 12 weeks. You will receive a box full of fresh, seasonal vegetables throughout the growing season.  The CSA boxes will be available for pick-up on the farm [860 Hornbuckle Road] each Friday from 3:00 – 6:00 pm from July 3rd through September 18th.  Boxes can be paid for on-site weekly or full payment can be made in advance.

Your support will benefit Clarksville’s F.U.E.L and Loaves and Fishes programs as well as provide fresh, home-grown veggies for your family.

The Garden of Hope is a local community outreach program sponsored in part by the City of Clarksville Office of Housing and Community Development, UT/TSU Cooperative Extension program in Montgomery County, other organizations and businesses.

How can you help?

• By volunteering to adopt a section of the garden and care for it throughout the garden season.
• Sign up for the Garden of Hope CSA, and for a nominal fee of $20 each week of the 12 week growing season you will receive a box full of fresh, seasonal vegetables.
• Shop at our Downtown Market booth on Saturdays later this season.
• Shop at the On-Farm Market Stand
