Where to find us this winter
If you’re yearning fresh produce this winter, you can find us and ~20 other vendors at the CitySeed Winter Market opening tomorrow, Saturday, January 7. The market will run weekly on Saturdays from 10am-1pm at the Conte West Hills High School on Chapel Street in New Haven. This week we’ll have lettuce, carrots, radishes and our jarred tomato products. There may even be a few jars of last fall’s honey harvest left. Get them while they last.
We’ll continue to make an appearance at the Winter Market approximately every other week, weather and harvest permitting.
If you’re not in New Haven, you can order directly from the farm using our online store, Massarofarm.square.site, also every other week. Store stays open through Wednesday; pick up on Fridays at the farm in Woodbridge.

2023 CSA Registration Open
Sign up now to ensure a successful 2023.
Community Supported Agriculture relies on community engagement. Your subscription NOW contributes critical funds for the purchase of seeds and supplies to kick off the growing season. We order now to ensure adequate supplies and begin planting near the end of February.
Sliding scale pricing allows YOU to select the tier that fits for you. And while payment in full is helpful for us, you can start with a deposit and then pay the balance in the spring, or choose a weekly or monthly payment plan, with automatic payments made through a credit card.
