Announcing a bold new adventure in fresh food

Joining a traditional CSA is a great way to get involved in the sustainability effort. When we put together our weekly food program, we based it on the idea of the CSA and then added components that you don’t find in traditional CSAs. We use regional produce when the local farms are covered in snow. We offer local cheeses, eggs, meats, granola, honey, and lots more in addition to the produce. And we buy from more than one family farm each week in order to bring you variety and full-flavor even during the winter months.

To reflect the diversity of foods that we offer (from Vegan to Omnivore) and to reflect, as well, the year-round support we offer to the organic food community, the sustainability movement, and to family farming, we’re changing our program name from CSA to SFF.

At Liberty Heights Fresh, sustainability has always been a core value. Now, with our year-round SFF program, we’re making a renewed commitment to our local and regional family farms and to our customers who want to eat authentic, full-flavored food that they can feel good about in every season.

In December of 2008, we began offering Utah’s food lovers the opportunity to join a unique CSA designed to bring fresh produce (and more!) to the table on a weekly basis. That CSA is our current SFF program. The response has been tremendous and new members are joining every week. Eating well has never been so easy! In addition to the really beautiful produce included in our vegan baskets, our vegetarian and omnivore baskets have featured granola, honey, dried fruit, yogurt, cheese, eggs and sustainably raised beef and lamb with more great new foods each week. And most of the vegetables, along with much of the fruit, are CCOF certified organic. But we don’t stop there - you can be sure that sustainability is a must for every item we include.

Need another great reason to join? Prices start at less than $25 a week for a full basket of authentic, full-flavored food!

FAQ

What is an SFF/CSA?
Our SFF program is based on traditional community supported agriculture (CSA)
programs in which a small farm grows food, pre-sells the food to customers, and
delivers that food on a weekly basis as it gets harvested.

What is the advantage to an SFF/CSA program?

Since SFF customers pay the farmer in advance, some of the financial burdens of
farming that usually hit before harvest time are relieved. In exchange for this, food
is delivered to customers below market cost.

Why join the Liberty Heights Fresh SFF?

What makes our SFF so innovative is that we’re pooling the resources of a number of
family farms, ranches, and food artisans throughout Utah and California. Instead of
the bounty from just one producer, we put together a variety of CCOF certified
organic and locally grown seasonal produce along with other sustainably farmed
foods. Our SFF supports sustainable agriculture, offers unique variety, and
still passes along the cost savings to our customers.

How does it work?

SFF members pay in advance for 13 weeks of delicious, fresh food. SFF food will
be available for pickup every Thursday after 1:00 pm. New members can join for
a 13-week period at any time since the program is ongoing.

What if I go on vacation?

No problem. Let us know a week in advance and we’ll add the missed week to the
end of your current membership.

What do I get?

The produce will vary from week to week. (For a list of what we’ve included in
previous week’s baskets, click here.) The items delivered will always be determined
by Mother Nature. We’ll check in with our producers regularly to find out what’s
ripe and what’s fresh and then get it to you right after it’s picked. One thing you
can count on each week is that it will be delicious, authentic, full-flavored food.
