Our Local CSA Guide
Purchasing a CSA is an incredibly effective way to support local agriculture in your community, but knowing where to start can be intimidating. That’s why we decided to make this digital CSA guide. We collected information from our vendor community and friends of the market to help you have all the information you need to choose a CSA. Reach out to each individual farm to learn more about their CSA. If you are a local farm interested in being featured, please email [email protected].
Invest in the Future of Farming
Click on the name of a farm below to learn more about their CSA offerings. Purchasing a CSA early in the season helps farmers afford the many costs of growing our food, including planting seeds, purchasing equipment, hiring staff, and getting ready for the first harvest.
We aimed to include as many farms in this list as possible. Boulder County Farmers Markets vendors are marked with an asterisk, though many of these farms supply our food hub throughout the year!

Customizable Share: This share allows you the most control over what you receive each week. Don’t like a certain veggie? No problem! You set your vegetable preferences at the time of sign-up. Each week (or every other week if you choose bi-weekly) we build your veggie share based on your preferences and you can swap items in and out (from your device at home on Mondays) to refine what you get each week. You can also easily purchase extra items anytime you want. The value for each item is consistently equal to retail value (i.e. prices we post at our Farm Stand and Farmers Markets). You will also be able to choose between a “regular” size and a “small” size.
Farmers Choice Share: This is the most traditional CSA model and offers you a discount on the seasonal produce, so you get more each week. Each week your share will be filled with a mix of great veggies chosen by the Farmers focusing on what is abundant and in-season on the Farm. You receive more when the Farm produces more. Your weekly (or bi-weekly) share will reflect 10-15% off retail value (i.e. prices we post at our Farm Stand and Farmers Markets). You will still know a few days ahead what most of your share will contain, along with a few surprises!
Fall Share: The Fall share runs from the week of October 23 – the week of December 4. Fall Share has 8 vegetable shares provided over a 7 week period – there will be a double cost/value share the week of Thanksgiving! The Fall share is only available as a regular size, Farmer’s Choice box.
We also offer “secondary” shares you can sign-up for if you have already purchased a veggie share: Flower Share, Fruit Share (in partnership with Ela Family Farm), and a Bread Share (in partnership with Moxie Bread Co.)
Paying in full saves you the most and helps the Farm with costs before we have crops to harvest. At Aspen Moon Farm we are dedicated to providing our CSA members with top-quality seasonal produce that puts the freshest possible local food on your table every week. We are USDA certified organic and use biodynamic practices to grow the best food possible for you. In return, you give your support: financially, which ensures your local farm can meet the annual upfront costs of seasonal production; and by committing to buy local produce all summer long and fueling local agriculture. Together we are building a local food system! Get your CSA with Aspen Moon Farm and pick it up in Longmont (at the farm), Boulder, or Denver.

In 2024, our CSA program will run for 23 weeks, from mid-May through October. Every week, you will receive a diverse array of farm fresh produce. This year, MASA is proudly offering two sizes of Farmer’s Choice Boxes to fill your family’s needs. Secure your share by May 1.
At MASA, your CSA supports organic vegetable production, seed research, and the development of a Regional Seed Bank. The Seed Bank serves local farmers and gardeners of Boulder County and the Front Range, and is integral to the growth and security of our local food movement. In modern agriculture, it’s a rarity for a farm to grow its own seed. Being seed centric marks a radical return to the origins of farming, fostering our connection to seasons of the past and seasons of the future.
Beyond CSA, the bulk of our produce is sold or donated to Food Access Programs that are dedicated to serving low income communities. Food equity is near and dear to all our hearts on the farm. We are always seeking out new partnerships, finding allies across the spectrum to reimagine the food web.
You will also be supporting a vibrant space for community connection. Individuals, offices, many various organizations choose to volunteer with us and connect with the land. Along with our robust volunteer program, MASA also hosts several school tours every year, ranging in ages from elementary to the CU botany program! As we grow, we dream of even more ways to bring local folks onto the farm, to experience the magic and beauty of this wondrous earth.
