Dancing the Land Farm is again offering our awesome Veggie CSA Memberships for 2020!
New ways to be a member!
- Standard Membership: Folks receive a Bushel or a Basket every week, at the pickup location of their choice.
- Working Membership: Folks come join the farm crew for 3-4 hours each week, get your hands dirty, get to know your food, and receive a CSA box for your efforts! Limited positions available, application necessary.
- Sliding Scale Membership: We're again offering our Sliding Scale Membership where those of us who are able spend a bit more to help support those of us who would otherwise not have access to a CSA membership. Last year we were able to subsidize 3 more families' access into our CSA program thanks to the joint generosity of us and our members! Yes! Let's see if we can do even better this year!

We LOVE to grow colorful, vibrant, vital foods. We love growing rare heirlooms and unique, organically grown, always GMO-free, delicious, varieties of produce you'd be hard-bet to find anywhere else, (and we grow all the old favorites, too).
We offer a Bushel for those who love veggies, and want to feed about four people, and a Basket for those who have just one or two at home and want the abundance of a CSA without feeling overwhelmed! Baskets are about 2/3 the size of the Bushel, not half as big. *For returning CSA Members, the Bushel is the same size as our Full and the Basket is the same size as our half. We changed the names to reflect the fact that the Half wasn't actually half of the Full, more like 2/3. Sorry for any confusion! |
We have New Pick-up Locations for 2020! Here's the full list:

Wait, what's a CSA? |
Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) is a farm-business model where folks invest in a farm early in the season, (when we farmers have a lot of expenses in seeds, compost, tools, etc.) and then share in the harvests all season long! That's an investment in your health, the farm, your farmers, your local communities, ecosystem, and local commerce. It says you're willing to stand with us as we do our best by you, our lands, our water supply, and our future generations. And in return for your faith in us, we share the best of our harvests with you. And, farming is part science and part relationship with the ground, we can do our very best and still lose crops to pests, drought, flooding, and more. Participating in a CSA means you're willing to stand with us through those downs as well as during the bumper-crop seasons. That support is crucial for a small farm's sustainability. We don't get crop insurance, it's not offered to us little guys. We get communities, folks like you, and I think we're stronger, and more accountable, and more capable of feeding people as a result. We give our CSA members a share of our harvests each week, through bounty and through trials--we go through the season together. Your boxes will represent what's ripening in our fields each week, right here, in Clearwater, Minnesota. All food should be this beautiful.
