CSA 2024

Frozen Coast Farm is a small scale, ORGANIC farm growing a variety of annual vegetables in Saanich, BC. We have been in operation since 2021. We focus on offering a local source of flavourful fresh seasonal vegetables that are good for you and good for the earth!

How does CSA work?

CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) is a subscription you order once, and the farm supplies you with a weekly share of locally and sustainably grown veggies throughout the growing season. CSAs help support your farmer to get the season going. By paying for your subscription up front at the start of the season, you’re helping your farmer get through their most costly time of year (seeds, tools, supplies, etc.), before their revenue from the growing season comes in. So, thank you!

Is a CSA right for you?

Are you looking to introduce more veggies in your diet?  Are you keen to try something new? Do you like surprises?

If a weekly mystery box of local veggies gets you excited, you should try out a CSA!
Signing up to the program will mean that you will always have a constant supply of nutritious, in-season vegetables to incorporate into your daily meals. It may also introduce you to new and delicious produce that you may never have thought to pick up at the grocery store. Don’t worry though, if you need a little guidance, there will be a recipe every week to provide you with some inspiration to get creative in the kitchen.

If you’re not looking for surprises or prefer to stick to your favourite, tried-and-true veggies, the CSA may not be for you. Fret not, there will be other ways to acquire our produce throughout the season. This season we will be at Moss St. Market and we will have farm stand hours onsite as well!

When will I get my veggies?

The CSA for 2024 will run for 18 weeks from June until September. It’s like having your own garden without the work! Pick up will be on Wednesdays. There will be a Victoria (Oaklands) and an on-farm (741 Haliburton Road) pick-up option.

What can I expect to receive each week?

You will receive about 6-8 in-season varieties of fresh vegetables in your weekly share. You can expect a mix of tomatoes, potatoes, lettuce, salad greens, kale, chard, broccoli, zucchini, cucumber, squash, beets, carrots, turnips, radishes, peas, beans, garlic, herbs, and more! I may at times fill in gaps with produce from other farmers, and you will always know who has grown what. All the farmers use organic practices so you can be assured you are receiving high-quality, nutritious food.

If the CSA program is not for you but you would like to hear more about the farm and where else you might find our produce this season you can sign up for the farm’s weekly newsletter. You can also follow along the adventure on Facebook and Instagram @frozencoastfarm

Thank you so much for your support, I can’t wait to get growing!
