New CSA Shares for 2024
Chatham Flower Farm's CSA flower subscription provides our customers with the opportunity to regularly receive premium, sustainably grown flowers, freshly harvested from our farm all summer long.
This offers an alternative to imported grocery store bouquets. We put a great deal of love and care into our flowers and want to share with our customers. They are grown without chemicals, using organic techniques that give back to the earth. Buying a flower subscription is a wonderful opportunity to get flowers guaranteed to be fresh, fragrant, and full of life every week.
What is a CSA?
CSA is an abbreviation for Community Supported Agriculture. When you become a member of our CSA, you are buying a "share" of the flowers that we produce each season.
For twelve or twenty weeks (depending on the share you choose), we will arrange the season's most beautiful flowers for you and have them available for pick-up at our farm or pickup while at the Farmer's Market in your area. Our CSA members, by paying for a share up front, support us as we plan for the coming season. Your payment enables us to purchase new and exciting flower and seed varieties, restock supplies, make repairs, and invest in equipment and infrastructure. Your support helps to make the success of our season possible and be able to provide you and our community with beautiful cut flowers on a regular basis.
CSA Subscriptions Offered

With our farm shares you will receive one arranged and beautifully hand-tied bouquet , jam-packed with seasonal fresh blooms and wrapped in paper.

Our standard stem length is approximately 10" but if you need longer, let us know and we will try to accommodate. Please keep in mind that our farm is at the mercy of mother nature, our season generally lasts from April to late October, but can vary.
Pickup, Delivery & Shipping
At this time we do not ship our flowers. Our flowers are available for pick up on the farm or at a local market for 2024.
For those who are not able to pick up our flowers at the farm, there are a couple of other options. Every week from June through October we sell our flowers to the public at our Farmstand on the farm. Some Saturdays we will be at a local market on the ESVA, either Onancock or the Chincoteague Market on the island . We may switch a few of these up during the summer. Need to know where we will be on a specific week? Email us or give us a call. You can arrange delivery of your CSA bouquets to our stand at any of these Farmer's Market for you to pick up.
We will have fresh seasonal cut flowers by the stem, as well as pre-arranged bunches to the farmers' markets in Exmore & Chincoteague(Wednesday only) and These will compliment any CSA bunch or can be added to by the Stem. Inspired by nature and changing with the season, we harvest only the best of what is blooming each day.
