Southside CSA has been partnered with the same family farms since our first season in 2009. All of our farmers are dedicated to sustainable farming practices for both the land, the produce, and the farmworkers. Vegetables from MimoMex Farm in Goshen NY; Fruit/Berry Share from Greig Farm in Red Hook, NY; Meat & Eggs from Northwind Farm in Tivoli NY; Fish from Pura Vida Fisheries sailing out of Hudson Bays Long Island.
Our vegetable share will be a little different this year. In order to make life easier for all the farmers, we will be receiving our vegetable share in May from Greig Farm. We must have a minimum of 50 full shares each week in order to have MimoMex shares. The plan is to switch to MimoMex Farm starting in June if sales goals are met. Vegetable shares are 8-10 items of fresh picked vegetables & herbs.
Greig Farm has been providing our (Mostly) Berry Share since 2010. Norm Greig is one of the most dedicated farmers, running a most impressive no spray farm which concentrates on berries. The Fruit share from Greig farm consists of asparagus, strawberries, peaches, blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, apples, & pumpkins. It runs for 24 weeks from the first week in May through the second week in October.
Northwind Farm is the provider of our meat shares and eggs. Started by Richard & Jane Biezynski in the seventies, it was Hudson Valley’s first free range all natural farm for chickens and turkeys. Now his son Russell runs the farm with his wife Amanda. They raise chickens, turkeys, cows, pigs, ducks, lambs and offer a variety of smoked meats in their shares. Meat share members customize their meat shares in a secondary process after payment. Northwind Farm raises the most healthy free range chickns for eggs and meat!
