Share the Harvest

Share the Harvest this October with your fellow Vermonters! This month-long, community-driven fundraiser offers an opportunity to support NOFA-VT’s Farm Share Program—simply by eating, drinking, and shopping at local participating restaurants, breweries, and businesses.

The Farm Share Program is a double-impact program: it helps low-income Vermonters access fresh local food via discounted CSA shares while still providing full payment to the participating farm. It’s a win-win!
