The Future of Agriculture at Rock Bottom Ranch

Community Supported Agriculture Program

Be a part of our neighborhood farming experience! Enjoy local, natural, whole food and learn how to sustainably feed yourself and your family while reducing your carbon footprint. Our program focuses on gardening, farming and ranching, education for all ages, developing neighborhood relationships, and providing a source of healthy, safe, dependable food.

Become A Farming Partner: Farming Partnerships will be available, as well as a community supported agriculture (CSA) program. Farming Partners can participate in soil building and preparation, planting and tending the crop, and sharing in the harvest of fruits, vegetables and greens. Animal care, learning about meat production, and storage techniques are also educational opporttunities available to Farming Partners.

Cow Pooling: Cow Pooling involves a yearly fee based on the amount of meat you think you can eat and/or store. Buying half a cow provides about 250 pounds of packaged meat, which costs Partners $3 to $5 a pound, depending on their level of involvement.

Crop Sharing: RBR will provide a CSA program featuring seasonal produce boxes for a yearly fee of approximately $550 per family that will be available forpick up at Rock Bottom Ranch one day a week mid-May through October. Discounts available for partners who arrange car-free pickup!

Other Changes at the Ranch

We are designing a green house, a root cellar and a bee yard to provide Farming Partners with earlier salad greens, kitchen herbs and medicinal plants, canned meat and vegetable products, and honey. Eggs, chickens, turkeys, honey, medicinal herbs, goat milk, meat and cheese are all possible products for Farming Partners.
