Help support your local farm.... purchase a 2021 CSA Share.
CSA stands for “Community Supported Agriculture”. Our flower CSA works the same way as popular vegetable CSAs. A member typically joins in the winter/early spring before the growing season starts. Their payment helps our farm buy seeds and other supplies for the year.
In return for their investment, members receive a monthly (for 3 or 5 months) bouquet of lavender products or flowers grown on our Farm.
Our CSA season runs from June through October. Members pick up their shares from designated pick up spots. Delivery of shares is not available at this time.
June - Lavender Products
Your share will include lavender products made by The Farm. Artisan soaps, sachets, hand & body butter, culinary lavender will be included in your goody bag.
July - Fresh Lavender Bundles
Picked fresh from the farm. Our beautiful lavender bundles, tied and ready to hang or enjoy to cook lavender dishes
August - Cut Flower Bouquet
A bounty of flowers. You’ll get an amazing bouquet of our blooming beauties. Your bouquet will include a variety of flowers, sure to please.
September - Sunflower Bouquet
Happy Days! Nothing puts a smile on your face like a bouquet of sunflowers. You’ll receive a mix of colors and sizes of our blooming sunflowers.
October - Dried Lavender Bunches
Pretty purple. You’ll receive several bunches of dried lavender. Use in sachets, potpourris, cook with it, or just put it in a vase or basket to admire.
We’ll send you directions with how to take care of your flowers, or how to use your items.
If you're looking to give a CSA Share as a holiday gift, just let us know who is receiving this gift, and their address, and we'll send them a pretty card from the Farm with information about their CSA share.

OUR 2021 CSA Subscription Sign Ups have ended. Thank you to those customers who purchased one!
By purchasing a a CSA Share from The Farm at SummitWYnds, either for yourself or as a gift, you agree to the following terms and conditions as the purchaser:
Payment
I understand that once I sign up and pay for my membership in full, I have secured my membership for the respective season.
Refunds are not available once a share has been purchased.
Agreements
Purchasers understand that by joining The Farm At SummitWynds CSA Membership they are agreeing to the inherent risks and rewards of farming. The Farm at Summitwynds, like all farms, is subject to the whims and mercies of nature; while the SummitWynds farmers will do everything possible to ensure vibrant crops, subscription members understand that there are no guarantees in farming.
SummitWynds is not responsible for the vase life of CSA members’ flowers. While SummitWynds will do all they can to ensure a long vase-life (by harvesting in the very early morning, making sure all harvest buckets and implements are impeccably clean, and storing subscription members’ flowers in cool-storage), flowers are living beings, all of whom are different and who are not immune to the environment in which they find themselves. SummitWynds will advise subscription members as to the proper handling and enjoyment of their bouquets at home, and advise that you follow the recommendations to enjoy your flowers for as long as possible.
By purchasing a flower subscription from SummitWynds, I am understand that I am purchasing flowers, and other than the lavender all other flowers are not edible products. SummitWynds flowers (other than lavender) are not safe for human or animal consumption and does not take responsibility for any effects that flower consumption may cause.
Pick Up dates
I understand that the start of each flower subscription season is flexible and based on seasonal conditions and product availability. I am aware that Summitwynds will communicate via email to inform all members of updates and start dates, and that it is my responsibility to contact the farm via email at [email protected] if I am not receiving notifications near the specified subscription start dates listed in the product details.
Picking up your share
I understand that my subscription will be delivered monthly to the pickup location I select upon purchasing my membership. If I am out of town or unable to pickup my flowers for any reason, I understand that it is my responsibility to find a substitute to pick them up. If I am unable to pickup my flowers or find a substitute to pick them up, I will not receive credit or a refund for any weeks that I do not pickup. If I need to switch my pick-up location, I need to notify SummitWynds at least one week in advance of the requested change.
Pickup time parameters are specific to each host location. It is my responsibility to pick up my subscription during the designated time period on the designated day. If I am unable to pick it up I will allow a friend to do so on my behalf. I understand that if my flowers are not picked up on the designated day, within the designated time, I forfeit that week’s flowers and they will be donated at the discretion of the host pickup location.
