Community Supported Agriculture

A CSA is a food production and distribution system that directly connects farmers and consumers. In short: people buy
“shares” of a farm’s harvest in advance and then receive a portion of the crops as they’re harvested. It is also a way for food lovers to guarantee
they’re getting fresh, seasonal produce from a place their neighborhood. CSA shareholders get to know the staff at the farm, ask questions, and have a sense of where their food really comes from.

Growing Home has worked in Englewood for over a decade, and we are Chicago’s
first and only USDA-Certified High Production Organic Farm.  We are also Chicago’s leading expert in farm-based training for people with employment barriers. Growing Home has impacted the lives of hundreds of workers and thousands oftheir family members by providing paid job experience and job-readiness training at our farms.

We believe that urban agriculture, combined with local food enterprise, can be a catalyst for change. All our farms, use a combination of outdoor growing space and unheated hoop houses to extend our growing season through the cold winters, allowing us to harvest from March through December.
