Have a craving for asparagus, peas and tender green onions? Seasonal eating just feels right this time of year, and one of the best ways to lean into it is through a CSA, or Community Supported Agriculture, program.
In a CSA model, customers buy shares of a local farm’s harvest in advance, then receive regular boxes of whatever is in season. Depending on the farm, that can mean produce, herbs, flowers, meat, eggs and more. Joining a CSA not only opens the door to new foods, but also provides farmers with critical early-season support and helps strengthen local food systems.
For locavores in the Roaring Fork and Crystal River valleys, a growing group of farmers are offering CSA programs in 2026. From flowers grown in Silt to poultry raised in the shadow of Mount Sopris, it’s never been easier to eat locally and with the seasons.
