FOOD Box Program
Join today and receive quality USDA certified organic produce consistently and affordably! FOOD Box participants pick up their FOOD Box full of the bountiful harvest from Crabtree's Urban Farm. This Community Supported Agriculture service or 'CSA' provides convenient access to farm fresh food.Vegetables & fruits grown locally & naturally have more vitamins and nutrients than commercially grown vegetables. Our produce is grown sustainably in chemical-free, healthy soils, and because we harvest our crops when they are fully ripe and they are nutrient-rich. This is also a recipe for superior taste!

ADOPT-A-BOX Program:
Share the harvest with those who might not have access to fresh organic food. Many in the community go without proper nutrition. Through this program, produce will be donated weekly to partners in the community for direct food assistance. By donating funds to the Adopt-A-Box Program, you can be assured that 100% of donation will provide food to a local family.
