Buy your Organic fruits and vegetables and have them delivered to you! Tierra Miguel- Raw Foodists
-can't be any fresher or more full of love than this!
What's in a "Box"?
What's in a box depends on the season and the elements. You can be assured the varied produce you receive will be fresh, clean and plentiful. We work to give you a wide variety of seasonal, CCOF-certified, organically grown fruits, vegetables and herbs. We include additional organic fruits and other fine delights from time to time. You also get a weekly Farm Newsletter with new recipes to excite the cook and updates informing you about Farm activities, with invitations to our special events.
Can I come to the Farm?
Every first Saturday of the month is Volunteer Day. Folks are welcome to come out to help the farmers and visit the remarkable 87 acres we want to save from development. We ask that you call in advance when you want to come. Special events can be planned, but must be pre-arranged. Gardening classes may be requested. We have school programs that give kids a chance to be "Farmer for a Day." Farmer's Market is on Saturdays from 10am-2pm, so please come by then. Click here for map and driving instructions.
Is the box more expensive than buying at the store?
Our produce is competitively priced with organic produce you might find elsewhere, but you also receive extra benefits by supporting the CSA. With us, we promise there won't be a need for pesticide cleanup nor will we deplete the soil, saving these hidden costs from future food bills. We plow your subscription funds directly back into maintaining farm activities and educational services.
Tierra Miguel sees you as part of our farm family and we practice and encourage conservation wherever possible, which also produces savings. Together we share the Earth's seasonal bounty as a community benefit.
What is the Tierra Miguel Foundation?
The Tierra Miguel Foundation is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization with the purpose of supporting the Earth and its people, by demonstrating and developing sustainable and chemical-free agriculture. We offer you our beautiful and delicious CCOF (California Certified Organic Farmers)-certified organic fruits, vegetables and herbs picked fresh and delivered to you weekly. We offer educational programs for all ages in farming and gardening. We are using vital and important biodynamic principles, practicing soil enhancement, composting and healthy agriculture. We're working with universities and seeking grants and donations to carry on the Foundation's far-reaching work. If your life's goals are similar, please ask about our Sponsoring Angels Program .
