Morningside Farm CSA was established in 2009 in Brevard, North Carolina. CSA stands for Community Supported Agriculture and is a direct marketing model in which community members buy a share of the farm for the year.  In exchange, members receive a box of fresh produce on a weekly or biweekly basis for the entire growing season.

 Although we are not certified organic, we do use organic practices and strive for sustainability. We feel that the direct connection of members to the farm is a crucial component of our business.

We grow a wide variety of crops, including: arugula, Asian greens, bok choi, basil, green beans, edamame, beets, broccoli, cabbage, carrots, cauliflower, Swiss chard, collards, cucumbers, eggplant, kale, kohlrabi, lettuce, okra, onions, scallions, snap peas, sweet peppers, potatoes, sweet potatoes, radishes, spinach, yellow squash, zucchini, butternut squash, delicata squash, spaghetti squash, and a wide variety of tomatoes.

We are in association with Busy Bee Farm. Members have the option of buying free range chicken, turkey, and grass fed beef from Busy Bee, through us. We also supply Busy Bee sweet corn in our regular boxes of produce.

In the summer of 2011, an article on Morningside CSA appeared in Carolina Public Press: http://www.carolinapublicpress.org/5024/wnc-experiencing-generation-returning-to-farm-with-blossoming-of-small-farms-selling-directly-to-consumers.
