Lexington Avenue CSA

Lexington Avenue CSA has been a staple in the Upper East Side community, providing a direct link between urban residents and the certified organic Stoneledge Farm in the Northern Catskills of New York. As a non-profit member of Just Food, it operates independently, focusing on delivering high-quality produce from June to November.

The CSA sources its produce exclusively from Stoneledge Farm, which adheres to certified organic farming practices. This ensures that all fruits and vegetables are grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers, promoting soil health and ecological balance. The farm's commitment to organic methods underscores a philosophy of working in harmony with nature to produce nutritious and flavorful food.

Members of the CSA receive weekly shipments of fresh produce, which they can pick up from a central location on the Upper East Side. The CSA also offers a variety of volunteer opportunities and resources such as recipes and best practices for handling and preparing the produce. This community-centric approach not only provides access to fresh food but also fosters a sense of connection and shared responsibility among its members.
