About
HeartEye Village CSA is located in Lafayette, Colorado about 8 miles east of Boulder at the old Boulder Valley School. We use sustainable, beyond organic, and permaculture techniques to raise vegetables and herbs on a quarter acre plot. Our CSA is immediately available to the residents on the farm, but as we grow we wish to include other residents in the Lafayette area.
Our Methods
We do not believe in using chemicals on the food we eat or raise. Our methods are non-certified organic (or Beyond Organic) using horse and llama manure, cover crops, compost and other natural fertilizers. We use natural integrated pest management (IPM) methods such as companion planting, row covers, and beneficial insects to keep the “bad” insects at bay.
Our goal is to provide you with the best produce possible, while caring for the land, and being as sustainable as we can.
Grow Your Own CSA Co-op Pilot Study
HeartEye Village CSA is a pilot study CSA farm created in collaboration with HeartEye Land Trust and LandShare Colorado. Our goal is to help create a working model for sustainable urban and semi-urban micro farms which will help new, or existing farmers, learn how to start CSA’s in urban areas. We feel that it is increasingly important to advocate and help create more local food sources in America’s urban areas. To learn more about the CSA Co-op, please visit Landshare Colorado .
