YALL: Youth Grown CSA
YALL CSA
We have an exciting new option for 2024 - a CSA grown entirely by the students in our youth agriculture program, YALL!
What is YALL?
YALL stands for Youth, Agriculture, Livestock, and Leadership. We educate refugee and new American youth in grades 8-12 on topics related to food justice, agriculture, leadership, and more.
Our youth engage in their local food systems at the New Roots Redwood Farm and markets, all while learning leadership skills, growing as a team and most importantly, having fun! The youth will be taking all they’ve learned and putting it into a delicious veggie share for you to take home each week.
Your impact as a CSA member:
Your purchase goes directly towards supporting stipends for our youth. .
What Do We Grow?
We grow multiple varieties of the following crops: salad mix, heirloom tomatoes, kale, carrots, beets, radishes, turnips, arugula, mizuna, spinach, cherry tomatoes, green beans, tomatillos, bell peppers, cucumbers, broccoli, eggplant, potatoes, pumpkins, herbs, zucchini, summer squash and more!
We occasionally source fruit from local orchards.
