Fresh Connect | Farm Share Program

What is a Farm Share?

A Farm Share, often referred to as a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture), is a simple, delicious subscription with a local farm. Customers pay upfront and receive fresh food throughout a designated season, ranging from one-time, weekly, or monthly. Shares may include produce, meat, eggs, and other farm products.

What is Fresh Connect?

Fresh Connect brings the farm to your workplace.
Through Fresh Connect, employers partner with local farms to offer convenient farm shares delivered directly to their employees. It’s an easy way to support employee wellness while strengthening local farm businesses. With administrative support from Iowa Valley RC&D, employers can offer employee support including payroll deductions or cost-share options to make participation simple and accessible.
