SHARE TYPES & INFO:
Individual: Mo’lovin Farms currently offers 8-week Shares (one pick-up per week), which are auto-renewable if you so choose. We begin a new group once we’ve signed up enough members to sustain that group (usually around 25 members depending on the season). Pick-up days & times are typically a 3-hour window on a specific day each week. Pick-up location is typically at Mo’lovin Farms located on South Lindsay Road in Chandler (just north of Ocotillo).
Neighborhoods, business, schools, Churches, etc.:
to organize group shares. With a group share individuals can join that particular group, and Mo’lovin Farms will create a pick-up location in a location of the group’s choosing. The minimum membership for a group is 25 members; and we ask that there be a group coordinator, who would receive a complimentary Membership for the season.
Splitting Shares: If you would like to split a share with a friend or family member, Mo’lovin Farms asks that 1 person be listed as the primary pick-up contact.
Eight (8) week season Share = $225 ($28 per week)
Why? Here's more...
Local Farms: Mo’lovin Farms has joined a network of local, likeminded farmers to help provide in the CSA needs. In this way we are “re-investing” our member shares in productive, sustainable farms in the Phoenix area. Our goal is to grow our membership here in the Chandler / Gilbert / Queen Creek area so that we can support our own farm and those other farmers who share our passion for local, naturally grown products.
Trusted Sources: We are happy to be working closely with Michael and his family at Love Grows Farms in Mesa. Michael brings the same passion to local agriculture that we do, and we encourage you to support his Lehi farm market in Mesa, AZ.
CSA is a community of individuals who pledge support to farms so that the farmland bonds with the community. In a CSA the growers and consumers provide mutual support and share the risks and benefits of food production. Typically, "members" or "share-holders" of the farms pledge in advance to cover the anticipated costs of the farms operations. In return, they receive shares in the farm's bounty throughout the growing season, as well as satisfaction gained from reconnecting to the land and participating directly in food production, locally. By direct sales to community members, who have provided the farmer with working capital in advance, growers receive better prices for their crops, gain some financial security, and are relieved of much of the burden of marketing.
Mo'lovin Farms CSA works with local farmers to source the highest quality, most nutritious, naturally grown produce available in the Phoenix area. We bring this all to you weekly in a grocery bag, so that you don't have to drive all over town looking for the right produce.

Why Mo'lovin Farms CSA?
Selection: Perhaps what sets Mo’lovin Farms CSA shares apart is the selection we offer to our members. By having such an expansive selection of products it is impossible to fit everything into our shares. We remedy this by allowing our members to purchase additional products that we try to make available on our farm at the time of pick-up.
Quality: Our pickup schedule dictates when crops should be harvested and brought to our members. This helps us guarantee only the highest and freshest quality in our shares. By knowing specifically how much to bring to a location and unpacking as needed, it is the closest thing to having your own backyard garden, but without the all the work.
