Welcome to Natural Roots

We are a horse-powered vegetable farm in Conway, Massachusetts offering CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) shares to our local community. We offer fresh produce for weekly pickup on the farm to members who prepay for each season, which generally runs for 22 weeks, from the first full week of June through the end of October. We offer many different CSA Share options to fit the needs of any household, large or small. Please see the CSA Sign-Up page for more details.

From our farm store you can purchase other locally produced products, as well as our own seasonal vegetables. We are open to the public for produce shopping seasonally, during CSA distribution hours. The farm store itself is open daily, self-serve, year-round. 

 Our farm is graced by the South River, which runs between our crop fields and our roadside CSA & Farm Store barn. We cross the river either by horse and wagon or over it by foot, on a wooden suspension bridge. CSA families often spend hours at the farm when picking up vegetables, wading in the river, picking you-pick crops in the fields, and visiting with friends.

Life Is Sacred

 It is with a reverence for all living things that we aim to raise every plant and animal on the farm in optimal health and vitality. To this end, we begin by nourishing the land with compost, mineral amendments, cover crops, and grazing animals. By enlivening the earth in this manner, the food and forage harvested tend to yield an enlivening effect of their own. It is this quality in our produce that you can taste and feel. In light of the belief that food is our best medicine, it is our ultimate hope that by offering this “medicinal” food we are contributing to the healing and enlivening of our culture.

 

Let us first nourish the land
so that in return it may nourish us,
for any sustainable culture has its roots in the earth
