Are you interested in learning more about our CSA and the community of people that make it possible? We're having an open house / garden tour on Saturday, May 13th at 10:30 am. Bring your friends; bring your neighbors! Liz and Ken will talk about the garden and lead the tour, and lots of existing members will be around to say hello. Please visit this page for directions.
We would love to have you join us for the 2017 season

Workers wanted
Interns/workers wanted for the 2017 season! This is an opportunity to learn how a CSA garden works while being paid to work in the garden. No experience needed. Requirements are a strong back, gardening interest, and a willingness to do hours of weeding, hoeing and planting.
Positions are available that begin mid-April and continue through October. Days and hours can be variable so that you can work other part time jobs or go to school while working in the garden. Positions can be 10 to 40 hours per week. June, July, and August are the months when the most hours are needed. Please contact Ken at uhcsa@uplandhillscsa.org or (248) 693-0432 to discuss the positions.

We grow a diverse selection of produce for our members. You can expect to have a wide variety of in-season produce to enjoy. For 2017, we anticipate a 16 week season with 4 - 6 items for the first four to five weeks. These will be mostly greens and other early season crops. For weeks five through twelve the number of different items will range from 7 - 15 per week. These items will be warm season crops. For the last 4 weeks we expect 6 - 10 (or more!) different items each week.
2017 will be the ninth year of operation for Upland Hills CSA and we will offer a huge variety of vegetables and herbs. The Upland Hills CSA Management Team worked hard to gain our organic certification and the CSA was certified organic in previous years by the Ohio Ecological Food and Farm Association (OEFFA). Starting March 2013, however, we did not renew the certification due to cost considerations. We remain committed to ecologically responsible and sustainable farming practices.
The Upland Hills CSA is located four miles east and two miles south of Oxford. We feel blessed to be nestled in the Upland Hills Learning Community. The Learning Community includes the Upland Hills Farm (www.uplandhillsfarm.com), the Upland Hills School (www.uplandhills.org) and the CSA.
