CSA Shares

CSA stands for Community Supported Agriculture and joining one is a great way to create a connection to a local farm. Calypso's CSA shareholders pre-purchase a share of the season’s harvest and, in return, receive a weekly supply of vegetables and herbs throughout the growing season.

Our 2023 CSA is full. Please check back in January or sign up for our email list to be notified when spots open for next summer!

Calypso Farm is situated on 30 acres, with approximately 3 acres in cultivation. From June through September, we provide fresh, organically grown vegetables, herbs and flowers to our CSA shareholders.

Our CSA offers weekly vegetable shares in a variety of sizes, as well as different pickup locations across Fairbanks. We also offer a Flower Bouquet Share as an add-on or stand alone option.
