If you want to eat local and eat healthy, joining Where the Redfearn Grows Natural Farms CSA Membership Plan is the perfect way to boost your intake of healthy foods sustainably grown by your neighborhood farmers. The CSA is a membership plan that allows you to share in the produce from our Independence, MO family farm. In effect, by joining the CSA you are joining into a very large home-grown organic vegetable garden–A garden managed without the use of harmful chemical pesticides or herbicides, and one that requires far less of your time and yields far more variety than if you were to put in your own garden. We offer two different membership levels to meet the needs of your household. The Basic Share includes 5 different types of vegetables or 20-25 servings for under $16 per week. The Premium Share includes 8 different vegetables or 32 – 40 servings for just $25 per week.

This is also a great way to get kids trying new foods from the start, make trying new foods a fun and regular occurrence! We will rotate these more unfamiliar items in the farm selected items to help you take a stab at something new, but most of the time these more rare items will be available for you to choose if you so desire.

You’ll be seeing us each week when you pick up your shares either at the farm or the Lee’s Summit Farmer’s Market. Members love bringing kids to feed the chickens and enjoy the outdoors. You’ll also have the opportunity to work along side us to bring in the harvest. The standard membership prices include a total of 8 hours of farm work per season.

Where the Redfearn Grows Natural Farms was founded with the belief that natural ecosystems hold within them the keys to growing healthy food. We believe in cooperation with nature rather than the subjugation of it. We bring ancient organic agricultural wisdom and modern biological research together to develop growing practices for our community supported agriculture program (CSA) that mimic naturally-occurring processes. The result is healthier food and a healthier environment. For all produce grown for our Kansas City area community supported agriculture program we reject the use of: chemical pesticides, herbicides, fertilizers or GMO seeds. We aim to protect biodiversity, build organic matter in the soil, prevent pollution, reduce waste, and conserve resources on our Independence Missouri farm. The health of our family, our customers and our environment is of critical importance to us. That is why preserving natural practices in growing the produce we provide to our Kansas City area CSA members is part of who we are.
