Noyo Food Forest

With the bounty of food growing in the summer of 2011 we initiated a pilot CSA Program with produce from The Learning Garden. We had 12 participants in this 6 week program which ran from July 13 through August 17.

Subscribers to our  Community Supported Agriculture program come to the Learning Garden between the hours of 2pm to 5pm every Wednesday and load up a sturdy box with their choice of the Bounty of the Garden. While they are here they also can enjoy the beauty of the Learning Garden and take the opportunity to exchange ideas and recipes with others picking up their boxes. It’s all part of “growing community, one garden at a time.”

Availability of vegetables, herbs, and flowers varies from week to week as different plants come in and out of season. All our produce is organic. No chemicals are ever used. All fertilizers are from the garden or the sea. Most of our varieties are heirloom.

Here’s a sampling of what will be available:

Many types of tomatoes, slicing and cherry

Garlic

Yellow of Parma onions

Cucumbers: lemon, Beit Alpha, Diva & Pickling
