We wanted to extend a special thanks to our “Special Ops” team: Anthony (19, front right), Nick (15, back right) and Sam (17, left), who have, together given hundreds of hours of their time to Stearns Farm over the past year. All three are local homeschoolers who started volunteering at the farm last winter. They quickly became indispensable, and Susan dubbed them her “special ops” team because they are ready for any challenge. They work all over the farm, but this summer they were especially helpful in keeping the crops watered during the long dry spells we experienced. Part way through the summer Anthony became a paid crew member, and Nick and Sam continued to volunteer weekly. Nick and Sam are continuing to homeschool, and Anthony is looking for landscaping work. From the entire Stearns Farm community, Thank You!

May 2025
ALL 2025 veggie shares are now sold out! The goods news – there is still a handful of PYO Flower & Herb Shares left in our online store. A perfect Mother’s Day, birthday, anniversary, graduation, or retirement present, this 10-week share begins in July and brings the gift of blooms and herbs through the rest of the summer!
There are no work hours required, and Mason jars for collecting are provided at the start of the share. It’s the perfect way to spoil the crafting and culinary enthusiasts in your life!
We are also now selling Vegetable Vouchers! Do you know someone interested in locally grown produce who isn’t one of our CSA members? A vegetable voucher entitles the holder to one week’s worth of vegetables, to be picked up at the farm during an eligible pickup day.
For fungi fans, we’ve partnered up with Fat Moon Mushrooms once again to offer a weekly mushroom share. Pickup is only available on Tuesdays.
Although the crops listed on this page represent what the farmer anticipates will be available this week, the vegetables you receive may be different due to weather conditions and other factors that affect production. For an overview of the ebb and flow of the harvest throughout the season, check out the Harvest Chart.
