There are still Flower Shares available!
A completely customizable farm share program!
Members of our CSA program have the opportunity to choose the veggies they receive each week.
To get an idea of what’s available for the shares each month, check out our 2023 Harvest Chart! It lists all the crops we grew and when they were available.
How Customization Works
Every member has on online account where all the veggies we grow can be given a rating from “I never want it” to “I always want it”. Each week we come up with a list of what crops we are able to harvest and the veggies get allocated into member shares according to the ratings. Members get notified by email of what has been allocated and then there is a 24 hour period where changes can be made. Members can swap items in or out of their shares and add additional items if wanted.
Sizes & Pricing
Flower Share

Member Testimonial: My family has been involved in several CSA programs over the years. Our experience with the Fair Sun Farm CSA has been the best. The app makes it easy to customize each week’s order, the produce is top notch, and it’s always a pleasure to interact with the Fair Sun Farm team. -D.S.

Amazing produce at a very reasonable price! I challenge you to find veg that is as delicious for the price - spoiler: you won't!You can tell the love that goes into the harvest. I love their emails with suggestions of what to do with the items in your pick.The ability to swap/add items is also a very very nice feature.Bonus: they have friendly cats!
Vast selection of delicious seasonal and organic vegetables directly from Pat and Marnie's farm in Spencerville, to be picked up at various locations around the Ottawa area; this means excellent personal customer service and less packaging of the produce. Very flexible terms to best meet your needs, including the ability to put weekly/bi-weekly shares on hold when away on holiday. I have been a very satisfied customer since 2019, and look forward to continuing my Fair Sun Farm relationship in 2023.
I have done a CSA with Fair Sun Farm for 2 years now and I couldn’t be happier with it. The variety and quantity of vegetables is perfect for our family and really got my daughters interested in trying new foods. Marnie and her team are so friendly and I look forward to seeing them each week on pickup day. Missing them over the winter as always and I’m counting down the days until the spring share starts!
I love my Fair Sun farm share. I get super value for my money and I get to try new things! I especially like the customization so I can pick what I want out of what is currently available. Everyone is super friendly and accommodating, even providing recipe ideas. I will be signing up year after year!
We love getting a weekly farm share from Fair Sun Farm! Marnie and the team are lovely people, and it feels great to support a local farm selling fresh, in-season produce. Every week, we get to customize our order, and we enjoy seeing the bountiful bags of produce we get all summer long (and even some of the spring/fall too!).
