Urban Tilth’s CSA

Urban Tilth’s CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) offers three programs that support families with fresh produce to encourage healthy living and alternative food options.

We grow food the natural way at our North Richmond Farm and partner farms – no chemical fertilizers, pesticides, or artificial agents. Following organic and regenerative practices, we invest in what matters most: healthy soil, thriving biodiversity, and sustainable growing methods. While our produce is not currently organic certified, we are actively working toward certification.

What drives us is growing food that’s good for you and good for the earth. With support from local farmers, we strive to bring you the freshest most sustainably grown produce possible. Your support empowers a diverse community of local farmers – including women, BIPOC, and LGBTQIA+ growers – who are nurturing our soil, growing healthy food, and building a more equitable and sustainable food system for everyone.
