"Every week was a surprise to see what was growing in the garden. I looked forward to picking flowers and arranging them for my home. Creative Kitchen garden not only made me feel connected to the changing seasons, but also to community. This place is so nourishing to your body and soul!"

"This garden was not just a farm share, it was my weekly meditation. Walking through the garden to pick my own produce and cut flowers is an act of connection, peace, tranquility, and a restful break from an otherwise busy summer!"

"Doing the you-pick CSA was one of the highlights of my summer. Having the flexibility to go to the garden at any time, as many times as I needed in order to complete my share was perfect for my busy and always changing schedule. The quality of the produce was incredible, and the community built around the garden was even better."

"Mary's garden provides more than amazing veggies and flowers- it's a really great opportunity to reconnect our SELVES with our food and the ground it comes from. It was a really nice change of pace to spend a half hour in the garden after work on a beautiful afternoon and just relish in the abundance. It felt therapeutic in and of itself!! I love this concept and hope to do it for years to come."

"It truly was a joyous experience to get into the garden to be among the gorgeous flowers, abundant veggies, buzzing bees, and lovely neighbors. We ate so well all summer and hardly bought additional produce August-October. The freezer is stocked, too! Thank you, Mary and team, for the obvious hard work and love you put into this garden. A true community gem!"

"I enjoyed the garden share so much this year. It was a little slice of me time each week, and I do not schedule that enough. My children also enjoyed getting their favorites from the garden. The best part though, the flowers! They brought such joy to our house, and to those we brought bouquets to. It was a wonderful addition to the farm share. Thank you!"

"Mary’s Garden is such a wonderful and welcoming community space. Every visit feels personal and uplifting, and the quality of the products is always amazing — fresh, thoughtfully grown, and full of care. Mary herself is a dedicated and knowledgeable farmer who clearly loves what she does. She communicates beautifully with her customers and goes above and beyond to make everyone feel part of her growing community. Mary’s Garden is truly a local treasure!"

You don’t! You’re buying a membership to the garden, and we have a plan in place so everyone gets a little of everything. However, weather, pests, and other unforeseen circumstances means that some crops will have less available, and others will be overabundant. Members must understand that we cannot guarantee they absolutely receive any specific item throughout the season.
General guidelines on how much we ask you pick will be shared in the weekly email.
The crops are planned to provide enough for everyone on a consistent schedule, without having an overabundance that is wasted. In an effort to keep the cost of garden offerings low, we have carefully orchestrated a schedule based on when things will be blooming. We try to avoid this, but if your schedule requires a different schedule- go for it!
Because there is fresh food growing in the garden, we ask that dogs stay at home. There is no parking area with shade, please do not leave your dog in your car in hot weather.
If you are out of town for a period of time, you're welcome to invite a friend or family member to visit and pick on your behalf- please just take the time to bring them to the farm and give them a quick orientation beforehand. Or, ask them to come on Thursday between 1-7pm. If you’d like, we can also donate your weekly share to someone in the community who needs it. Just let Mary know!
See above- you can either offer your weekly share to a friend, or Mary can donate it to someone in need.
Probably not! Unless someone is at the farm doing work, expect that the garden will be fully unattended when you visit. Information will be shared with you via email each week and we ask that you read it carefully. What is ready to be harvested will be marked and all tools will be provided. There will be a short orientation in June to provide information and best practices.
We are more than happy to pick up your weekly share for you and deliver it right to your car on Thursdays from 1-7pm.
Yes, we just ask for a 50% deposit to reserve your space by April 1, and then the other 50% by June 1, 2025.
No, there will not be open you pick nights this year. This was a tough decision to make, as open-you-pick events have been a huge source of community building and joy over the last three years. However, to continue to offer you pick nights, we would have had to triple the price of what we were charging. Instead, we chose to move to a model where we could continue to give our guests a really good deal with the same pricing, but in a way that balances the costs and investments more sustainably for the farm.
