Shady Maple Farm CSA

Shady Maple Farm began in the early 1960s when our dad, Ken Meier, moved our family to the Salem area. With his passing in October 2011, we wanted to mix his love of gardening and his love of our family (who can all cook and eat) by starting a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture). Dad grew many different fruits, veggies and flowers while trying new things each year. Our CSA plans to honor his memory by continuing to grow many things for our harvest boxes while offsetting the cost of the garden.

We practice sustainability at the farm. Crop rotation, use of drip irrigation and re-using the flower water each week are some of the ways we are being kind to the earth.

We have two harvest boxes available for this coming 2019 season as of May 19th. If interested please email Lorrie at shadymaplefarmcsa@gmail.com and leave me a note. I will send you information. 18 weeks of fresh produce, herbs, berries and tree fruits when they are in season along with a weekly bouquet of beautiful flowers for $500.

We do have just flower subscriptions available.

A Full Flower Share is 18 weeks of gorgeous bouquets for $230 or a Half Share, every other week for a total of 9 weeks of flowers for $115.

Please email Lorrie at shadymaplefarmcsa@gmail.com if you are interested.

Pick up would be on Tuesdays between 4:00 - 6:00 pm at Shady Maple Farm, 8005 Portland Rd. N.E. Salem, Oregon. Our season lasts from May 28 to September 24, 2019.

Week 3

Not very many photos today as I just had my knee repaired on Friday. My great nephew took these pictures today! More photos in weeks to come.

Strawberries among all their foliage.

Beautiful fresh beets are getting bundled by my great niece.

The beginning of the boxes today. Slicing cucumbers from the greenhouse along with the beets and fresh peas that the bunnies in the garden haven't found.
