LTD Farm CSA Shares for 2013!

We’re still taking signups for Thanksgiving Turkeys, Pastured Rabbit & Pastured Goose.          We’re SOLD OUT for CSA Shares for 2013, please let us know if we should contact you in the fall about our 2014 season. Thank you!!

The LTD Farm CSA program is unique:

Diversity & Quality- Our CSA boxes are full of fresh organic vegetables, rich duck eggs, silky handmade goatmilk soaps, wildflower bouquets, wildcrafted foods, and other fruits of our farm!

Monthly- Our Original Share is a perfect compliment to your monthly cooking plans if you enjoy shopping at the farmers market, love gardening in your backyard plot, or have an active lifestyle.

Sustainability- On our small farm we focus on bio-intensive and permaculture methods for building soil fertility with the helpful assistance of our animals in many mutually beneficial ways. We also preserve patches of  savannah and woodlands in order to secure habitat and food sources for our wild helpers, including the all-important bees that pollinate our gardens and fruit trees, wild birds that snack on pests, and toads and frogs that enjoy slugs and cutworms.

Small-Scale Farming- As a husband and wife farming team  using mostly manual labor on a small-scale farm we offer a limited amount of CSA Shares every year in order to be able to put our full effort into each and every one of the boxes we produce.  By becoming a member of our CSA you’ll be happy to know that you are supporting the small-scale pasture-based sustainable and organic food revolution.

Half a Year – Our CSA Shares span 6 months of the year, giving you a seasonal taste of what we produce on our farm for from the beginning of the growing season to the end!

Connection- We love to share our always-engaging farming experiences! We post regular updates on our website, Facebook & Twitter.

Pastured Meats- We specialize in raising delicious and nutritious pastured meats, which come from our lovingly raised & humanely harvested animals.

Convenient Drop Sites- As a member, you will be able to pick up your CSA share at the Seward Co-op Grocery and Deli in Minneapolis, MN, or River Market in Stillwater, MN.

VIP Harvest Party- As a member of our CSA, you’ll be invited to come on out to our special CSA Member Appreciation Day in the fall, with food, fun and farm tours!

Email us to sign up-  farmers (at) ltdfarm.com

We prefer full payment to purchase your CSA Membership,  but you can hold a CSA Membership by sending us a 50% deposit, with the balance due by March 1st, 2013.

    Hi Khaiti,

    I was just reading about your farm in the Seward’s newsletter. I can’t wait to go get some of your duck eggs – I’m excited to get to try something other than my usual free-range chicken eggs (not to knock chicken eggs; I looooooooove eggs, especially when they’re from healthy, happy chickens).

    We only buy free-range turkeys and eggs, so I’m for sure interested in those. I might also want to reserve half a pig, once you have even a ballpark idea of what the cost might be. And if I ever figure out where in my tiny, tiny yard I can put a coop, I’ll some day be interested in ducklings (if only Minneapolis also allowed goats, like St. Paul does…).

    Looking forward to hearing from you,
    Priscilla

  2. Hey Priscilla! I sent you an email about the CSA, thanks for contacting me!

  4. Hi Khati,
    I kept thinking about those turkeys on your farm and would like to order one. Is it too late for that?

    I have been enjoying the duck eggs and goat milk soap all summer! I’m hooked!

    Thank you so much,

    Donna

  5. I have a waiting list I can put you on, but looks like they are all spoken for for 2010. Wish I had more this year! But next year we’re gonna be turkey maniacs out here!

  6. Could I get some information on your CSA? Also, I am thinking of possibly purchasing a pig and splitting it with a friend, could I get info on this as well as this will be my first time purchasing a whole pig.

    Thanks,

    Shawn
