Community Supported Agriculture

The Lakewood Earth and Food Community is planning another great year of local produce! The City Fresh and Covered Bridge Gardens programs will be delivered on Wednesdays (LEAF Nights) at the Lakewood Library from 5:30 pm to 8:00 pm starting most likely (depending on the weather) in the beginning of June.  We will be accepting registrations at the LEAF Open House on March 14th. A third program, Geauga Family Farms, certified organic CSA will also be offered in Lakewood. The day and location of delivery will be determined.    Visit the CSA page of our website to download the applications.  We are always seeking additional volunteers.  Please contact leafcsa@gmail.com if you have questions about any of the CSA programs or are interested in helping out.

Thank you to everyone who pitched in over the past couple of years either at the library, City Fresh Distribution Center, or in the many other ways by which volunteers added their unique character and support to the project. Without the help of dedicated volunteers, LEAF Nights would not have been possible.

To meet the growing demand for our programs, we need to expand our volunteer base. There are many volunteer opportunities; in fact, there are options for all ages, interests and skills. If you haven't told us about your interests already please fill out the form at the bottom of the page. This will help us identify whom to contact for future events and volunteer opportunities. We are also seeking applications for board member positions, which can be indicated below.
