Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) is a way for the public to buy local, seasonal food directly from a farm. It's "farm to table" in the most literal sense.  

 

Here's how it works: A farm (Grateful Hearts Farm) offers a certain number of "shares" to the public (you). By purchasing a farm share, you recieve a weekly share of nutritious, seasonal fruits and vegetables, while supporting the local economy. 

From pesticide residues in food, soil and water to the shrinking number of family farms, there are many reasons to consider participating in a CSA program.  At Grateful Hearts Farm, the food you receive is grown to the highest organic standards and is free of GMOs, pesticides, herbicides and chemical fertilizers.

 

Grateful Hearts is passionate about working with the land to produce the most wholesome, nutritionally dense, best-tasting food possible.

Recieve ultra-fresh food, packed with flavor and vitamins.

It's great for the local economy and builds the community’s rural character. You also get to know the farmer who grows your food. 

Experience new, seasonal vegtables, and/or  varieties that may not be available at local supermarkets.

Teach your kids where food comes from and experience life on the farm. Plus, kids love food from "their" farm--even veggies they've never been known to eat.

OUR LOCATION

ABOUT US

Grateful Hearts Farm is an eight-acre farm, located in Longmont, Colo. Owned by Bill and Michelle Luce, the farm is operated by two generations of the Luce family. 

 

Bill has always enjoyed gardening, but the development of the farm began when his son, Jake, took the large family garden to the next level--offering the abundant produce to the surrounding community. 

In 2016, Grateful Hearts Farm established a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program to include local families in the harvest of non-certified organic produce.

 

While the farm believes organic methods are fundamental to producing quality in the food it grows, it has chosen not to be "certified" organic because of bureacratic system of the USDA certification process--it simply wasn't worth the time, record-keeping and fees.

 

"Our time is better spent actually farming: applying sustainable, organic, healthy methods to maintain the quality and confidence in the food that we grow," Bill explains.

Grateful Hearts Farm uses no pesticides or herbicides. For fertilizer, it only uses composted organic matter and manure produced by animals on the farm. We care about the quality of our soil and implement the practices of seasonal crop and plot rotation. 

Today, the farm not only provides produce to families who purchase farm share, but also to local restaurants. 

Bill's  interest in gardening began in his grandfather's backyard.
