What is a CSA?
Community Supported Agriculture creates a direct partnership between the community and the farm. Produce dollars stay in our local economy. Our local community is supporting, with their dollars, growing methods that foster living soils and protect water quality, assuring healthful and nutritious produce. Those who purchase a Shoshone River Farm Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) Share will receive a weekly distribution of produce grown at the farm. The contents of the share will vary during the seasons as produce matures. Each share contains a number of items. Members can pick a number of additional items from a variety of herbs and vegetables not in the share. We have a 6 week Spring and a 20 week Summer CSA.
The prepayments for our CSA Shares provide the farm early working cash to help pay for spring labor, seeds, and other necessary products to start the farm in the Spring.
Being a partner means sharing the risk and bounty with the farm. By sharing the risk, you help to ensure the farm will continue another year in the case of some catastrophic event. When growing conditions are favorable, you will receive more produce than expected. When growing conditions are unfavorable, you may receive less produce than expected.
We are unable to refund any CSA purchase once the season begins.

How we Grow
Shoshone River Farm began delivering produce north of Cody in Wyoming’s Big Horn Basin in 2009 (now in our 14th year). Scott Richard, the farm manager, places a great value on cultivating living soils, plant health, and flavorful, nutritional produce. First we build healthy soil then we sell that soil as super fresh vegetables. Scott employs a complex system of cover cropping, mulching, and compost applications to boost a healthy living and complex soil biome. These practices lay the foundation for the growth of vegetables with exceptional flavor and nutrition. Scott practices, as much as possible, Biodynamic and French Intensive growing methods. We use only organic pesticides. We are not organic due to our use of non-organic fertilizers. We use these due to limitations of access to high quality organic fertilizers. The farm has eleven hoop houses that help extend the growing season in our challenging climate.
