We are so excited to be offering our 2025 CSA veggie box from Our Farm. A selection of fresh, locally grown vegetables from Our Farm to your table. Available for 17 weeks this summer and fall. Good things come from Our farm.

More Information

A CSA is a vegetable box program that connects you directly to your farmer. It stands for Community Supported Agriculture and works by members pre-purchasing vegetable shares in exchange for an assortment of fresh, seasonal and delicious produce during the growing season.

By purchasing a CSA vegetable share you are supporting your local farmer and are securing a share of the freshest and healthiest produce for you andyour loved ones. When you sign up you are not only investing in some deliciousvegetables, but also in your local food system and the good work we do here at KW Habilitation.

Anyone who is looking to eat locally and is interested in trying new varieties of vegetables as they become available during the growing season. This share will provide vegetables for a veggie loving single/couple or a small family that consumes vegetables moderately.

How much is a CSA share? The price for 17 weeks of vegetables is $515. Some weeks may have a higher value, and some may be a bit lower depending on what is available and how the season is going.

When does the CSA Start? 17 weeks. June 24th – October 14th, 2025

Where Do I pick Up the CSA? CSA pick up day will be every Tuesday from 4:00-6:00pm at 115 University Avenue East, Waterloo, ON

6-8 different types of vegetables in your share each week.

A weekly newsletter updating you on what will be available in your veggie share that week, news from the farm fields and new recipes to try.

Each week you will bring your own bag or box to take your share home in. All the items will be set up on tables with instructions about what to take for each share and we will have a team member available to help you in any way you need. There will also be a ‘Swap Box’ where you are able to trade in one item per week for a different one. Ex. You don’t like fennel? Swap it out for another head of lettuce.

You will be eating seasonally so the variety of vegetables available will be continuously changing with the changes in temperature and sunlight that each season brings.

Some of the crops to expect during each season:

Spring – Arugula, lettuce, radishes, bok choy, kale, garlic scapes, green onions, herbs

Early Summer – Cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, kohlrabi, peas, zucchini, beets, carrots, beans

Late Summer – Peppers, tomatoes, cucumbers, eggplant, string beans, raspberries, potatoes, onions

Fall – Winter squash, brussels sprouts, turnips, spinach, parsnips, carrots, leeks, rutabaga

If you are unable to pick up your CSA share you can gift the share to a friend to pick up on Tuesday in place of you or you canemail [email protected] to ask that it be donated to a local non-profit. We will not be offering holds, refunds or returns on shares during the 17 weeks.
