The Fruitful Hills CSA community of horse-powered family farms grows the products for 25 weeks of deliveries in the summer, beginning early May and ending mid-October. Our community also grows products for a winter CSA, beginning mid-November, and ending in late April with 12 bi-weekly deliveries. Fruitful Hills CSA grows high quality, healthy products. We started with vegetables 15 years ago, and now include eggs, chicken, turkey, beef, pork, raw dairy, honey, canned goods, cornmeal, popcorn, and apple cider. Fruitful Hills CSA offers farmers in our community the opportunity to take part in our grower’s circle. Members of our grower’s circle must uphold exacting standards for quality and land stewardship. Eight families grow a variety of vegetables for the summer and winter CSA seasons with consistently high quality. Our crops include heirloom and hybrid tomatoes, lettuces, baby leaf salad mixes, carrots, radishes, beets, broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, bok choi, kale, peppers, cherry tomatoes, watermelon, cantaloupe, sweet corn, zucchini, cucumbers, green beans, potatoes, and strawberries. Share subscribers in the summer 2023 season received strawberries for 5 weeks, melons for 9 weeks, tomatoes for 19 weeks, and lettuce for 16 weeks. Our winter share subscribers enjoy a mix of root crops, fresh and storage vegetables, canned goods, fresh salad mixes, and head lettuce. Using high tunnels in the winter season gives our subscribers soil-grown fresh greens. We delivered fresh greens even in December, January, and February. We grow varieties harvested and delivered at the peak of their flavor and nutrition. We grow for flavor, not for easy shipping. We grow vegetables high in minerals and nutrients. We avoid the use of synthetic sprays and fertilizer, only using products labeled for organic production. We build soils with green cover crops, compost, and manure, using proper withdrawal periods for manure application of 120 days before harvest. Using horsepower for field work and growing crops in high tunnels, we generate a small carbon footprint. We heat the high tunnels with wood in the coldest days of winter for the early tomatoes. Doing so allows us to deliver to subscribers fresh, soil-grown tomatoes early in the summer season. We raise our animals outdoors on free-range pasture. During extreme weather, we provide proper shelter. A benefit to subscribers is the annual farm visit and tour, held in early summer. We invite subscribers to visit the farms to see our farming practices and talk with the people growing their food. We feel it’s proper to say, “From our fields to your table, using sustainable farming practices with your family’s health and the health of the environment for future generations in mind.” We are master beekeepers and have been in business for more than 34 years. We love keeping bees and love the way it keeps us in tune with the natural world around us. We strive to make as many products as we can with our honey and beeswax. We love to talk bees with people.  Founded by the farmers who own, run and supply it. The Kansas City Food Hub was founded in 2016 by a group of small farmers who envisioned a local food system that allowed farmers to move their product into restaurants, schools, homes and more. They not only wanted to feed their communities but uphold their beliefs of sustainable farming for themselves and the next generations. In addition to integrating local food into the Kansas City Metro Supply Chain, The Kansas City Food Hub focuses on…
Our small and medium-sized farmers are improving the economic viability of sustainable local agriculture by coordinating year-round production, by supporting emerging growers, by aggregating the distribution of product, and by bringing farmers and buyers together in a community that benefits all. We are a 14.5 acre urban farm in southern Wyandotte County bringing people of all ages, ancestries, and abilities on-farm, hands-on connecting them to the land and soil, food, community, and opportunity. We scaffold our educational opportunities so that pre-k children can get outside, move around, and experience farm life; elementary-aged children can feel the joy of growing and eating fresh food; and tweens, teens, and young adults can begin to experience regenerative agriculture as part of the entire food system, and perhaps as a vocation. We also participate as a host farm in the Growing Growers program. We grow using organic methods and feed our own 40-member CSA, host a weekly on-farm Farmers Market (Wednesday 3-7pm), use a pay-what-you're-able economic model for our food and programs, and accept SNAP, Double-Up Food Bucks, and Senior Farmers Market Nutrition checks.  Karbaumer Farm is a small, seventeen-acre farm just outside Platte City and Kansas City, Missouri. We've been growing vegetables here since 2004. Almost three acres are in vegetable production. We say we are farming "back to the future" because our farm is powered by draft horses. To help protect air and planet, our vegetables are grown without chemicals of any kind. We sell our produce to local restaurants and families who live nearby. Gleaners from After The Harvest pick up our extra vegetables and distribute them to families who are in need of healthy food. We collect rain water to reduce water consumption and we purchase 'green power' from our local utility. Our old farmhouse is heated with two wood-burning stoves we feed by cutting our own firewood. Our bees produce honey in hives we keep behind the barn and our hens roam freely in the afternoon sun. The horses, goats and a little donkey graze the pastures contentedly. Animals who come to live on our farm have found their forever homes. We take orders for processed chickens and turkeys from Mast Pastured Poultry in Jamesport, Missouri. The Masts own a small Amish farm and raise their poultry on pasture and in accordance with the Food Circle pledges. We do not charge the farm or the consumer for this service. "There's something about the outside of a horse that's good for the inside of a man." Winston S. Churchill We are a small family owned 2 acre operation farming organically since 1981. We have been making organic soaps and bath care products since 1985. We also teach several old world arts and crafts skills including pottery. We only use sustainable practices in our business. We grow many heirloom and specialty hard to find fruits and veggies along with herbs and orchard fruit. We also have been growing many organic micro greens since 1996. We also have a wide variety of specialty organic soaps, salves and souffles made from only the finest ingredients. We are a regional finalist in 1984 with Robert Rodale’s Organic Magazine Contest, a host farm with Growing Growers KC since 2005, a SARE grant winner 2008 Project titled, ‘Incredible Crop Yields From Small Urban Spaces,’ have shown our gardens with KCUrban Farms and Gardens Tours 2009, 2011, 2013, 2015, 2018, and an Entrepreneur Showcase Slow Money Speaker 2005. Sarah and Nicolás García both came to urban farming in roundabout ways. Sarah studied horticulture at JCCC in 2006-2008 and Nicolás studied how the world was broken at KU 2004-2008. While at KU Nicolás found peace in his vegetable gardens and guerrilla growing operations and after leaving KU Nicolás organized The Guild of Guerrilla Growers and later Anti-Hero Farms Edible Landscaping. In 2013 Sarah and Nicolás acquired the land they cultivate and established Treehouse Urban Farm in Waldo neighborhood of KCMO. They raise Indian Runner ducks, bees, native plants, berries, herbs, greens, mushrooms, and a rotating variety of annuals and edible flowers.  The Young Family Farm is a family-run operation in midtown, Kansas City, Missouri. At the core of their work is the belief in social justice, community empowerment and collective action. In operation since 2010, the farm was more formally "established" in 2019 with the goal of providing healthy food options to residents in an area classified as a food desert and inspire community members to grow their own produce. |
