Roots & Wings CSA- in Dobbs Ferry
This year we have partnered up with Roots & Wings CSA in Dobbs Ferry to bring you fresh organic produce down into Westchester.
Roots & Wings looks for ways to bring awareness to our relationships with each other and the natural world— from growing good food to composting, connection, and community. They are not experts- they are learning by doing, as well as learning from people who are further on the path of “people care, Earth care and fair share." Each step of the process is open to all. To learn more about Roots & Wings and their mission, check out their website at Roots & Wings Site.
This CSA operates a little differently than our regular CSA and the details can be found below:

Pickups will be on Sundays at 343 Broadway in Dobbs Ferry, NY- In the parking lot behind South Church from 8:30 am to 10:00 am.
