About the farm
Farmers Fresh CSA is run by farmers for farmers. Instead of trying to grow all of our produce on our one farm we tap into the growing capacity of over 50 small farms, ranches, dairies and other small producers from our Georgia and Alabama area. Our goal is to support local partners by providing an alternative market geared towards small/start-up operations, while gathering a wide variety for our CSA members.
