At Monroe Family Organics, we celebrate the natural rhythm of the seasons. Unlike the constant availability of produce in grocery stores—often shipped from faraway places—the vegetables in your CSA share are harvested fresh from our fields, right here in Alma, Michigan.
Seasonality means that each crop has its own window of availability, depending on when it thrives in our local climate. In early summer, you'll enjoy tender greens and snap peas, while the heart of summer brings tomatoes, basil, and zucchini. By fall, hearty root vegetables, squash, and sweet potatoes make their debut, alongside cool-weather favorites like kale and spinach.
These natural cycles not only ensure the freshest, most flavorful produce but also connect you to the rhythms of the land. Every week, your share reflects what’s happening on the farm at that moment, offering a vibrant taste of the season.
Here's what you can expect in each month of the CSA season!
