Welcome to Spring at New Leaf Organics!
Things are really starting to pop around here. We've been seeing the first of our asparagus spears poking out of the soil, our spinach and peas are up, and our greenhouses are filled with plants. The farmstand is now open, so come over and see what we've been up to. We are still accepting more members for our CSA, and you can find a sign up form at the farm stand or here, on our website. We are also starting a CSA pick up in Middlebury at the CO-OP, so if you live in Middlebury there will now be an easy way for you to participate.
See you soon.

New Leaf is located on the Monkton/Bristol Road (also called North or Silver Streets) just on the town line. Look for the Yellow farm stand building and lots of signs. The farmstand is open for the season and our greenhouses will be filled to the brim with flowering plants, hanging baskets, veggie starts, and lots more.
New Leaf Organics is managed by Jill Kopel with the help of many hands throughout the season.
What is a CSA?- Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) is a system in which consumers support a local farm by paying in advance for agricultural products. Throughout the growing season, CSA members receive a portion of the farm's harvest each week.
