I have been a member of three other CSA's and what I love about this one is the choice! "Shopping" in the store room is always fun and I love the perks and affordable add-ons like the Fruit and the Flowers! The optional volunteer hours also have taught me a lot!

A very special part of our community!! Dedicated team of leaders, farmers and CSA share owners bring forward significant food, health, volunteerism, food bank supply, youth education, organic farmer interns, and very happy well-fed healthy eating families. Hard to find these values!

Pennypack Farm is such a wonderful community. I’ve been a member for six years, and the variety, quantity, and quality of produce can’t be beat. I love taking my kids to pick our own green beans and cherry tomatoes, and the greens through the winter are amazing. This isn’t a CSA where you’re left with pounds of beets (though the red and golden beets — including the greens — are top-notch). I love the lettuce, potatoes, kale, squash, cucumbers, and tomatoes, but also veggies I haven’t tried otherwise, like celeriac, salad turnips, and tatsoi. Oh, and the strawberries in June will make you never want a grocery store strawberry again. Be warned.Summer shares run June-November and require volunteer time, or a donation. Volunteering on the farm has really enriched my experience. The farmers are so kind and knowledgeable, and I’ve built a community of folks I see each week. You can also add on a cut-your-own flower share for the summer, providing a gorgeous bouquet each week. Winter shares run November-March and include an amazing variety of food, from Napa cabbage to butternuts and winter spinach and lettuce.

This is our third CSA experience. Just found out about Pennypack this past year, can't believe they were right around the corner this whole time. What a gem! No thing in the world like fresh quality produce. Thank you for all you do.

The quality of the produce is incredible and the farm's attention to sound ecological practices is important beyond measure.Being able to get weekly produce that has just been picked instead of the weeks-old, environmentally destructive grocery store selections is a real treat, and I feel very lucky to have PFEC close-by.I am also very happy to support an organization that donates so much food to food banks.

This is our first year at Pennypack but our third CSA. This is hands down the best! The choice is amazing. Usually I end up with a bunch of veggies I can't use, but at Pennypack, I get to choose what we take home. There are also many "freebies" each week because the farm is so prolific! Great spot and we are joining again next year!

First-rate, community-shared agriculture operation. Organically and sustainably-grown food, but in the interest of minimizing cost, PPF doesn't pay to be certified. Members buy shares at start of season, then enjoy weekly pickups. Quality of produce is superb; items often were harvested the very day you receive them. Prices--not cheap--are fair for what you receive.

My wife & I have been summer/winter members of PFEC for several years. As health-conscious environmentalists, we give it one star for the great food it provides, one star for the environmental damage it avoids, one star for the kind & generous people we meet, one star for the efforts to educate young & old, & one star for helping to fight hunger through food donations. On top of that, we get to commune with the birds & bees while picking veggies, fruit & flowers. Try it. You'll like it. Dr. John :-)
