Welcome to Regeneration CSA

There is a lot of energy developing for new ways (old ways really) of being in relationship with each other, with nature, and the land.  We are currently exploring various intentional community projects in the works.

The main website for all things intentional community related is www.IC.org

This is our posting from there:

Seeking Community Sarah and Kevin On 11/29/2010

We are looking for an established community, or one that is forming that needs some Regenerative farmers!

We have been running a CSA in NYS for the past five yrs, using permaculture and organic no-till methods otherwise known as "Regenerative" farming. www.RegenerationCSA

We have a lot of skills and experience in natural building, carpentry, veggie fuel and diesel mechanic'ng, food preservation, permaculture design, sustainable living skills and alot more. And we have some money and resources; wvo powered trucks, tools, portable greenhouses and more stuff like that to bring to any community project.

We seek a community that wants to expand its food production, and hopefully support other right-livelyhood opportunities from the land. If these potential regenerative-food based business' are cooperative, all the better!

We have been somewhat active in non-profit farmland protection efforts in NYs, and though it may not be essential, are very much attracted to CLT's and other types of community-based land tenure options for anything new.

We are currently looking in the Appalachian region; Western NC, Virgina, West Virginia, etc. but we are open to other areas as well.

Dear Regeneration CSA Community,

    As you probably know, Sarah and Kevin have decided to move on from the Clove Valley farm after years of establishing beautiful and productive gardens and building a vibrant farm community- all of you!  This letter is intended to happily confirm that the CSA will be continuing in 2011, under the management of Aileah, Toby, Rio, Premilla, and potentially another grower.  This is Aileah writing to you today; I had the pleasure of meeting many of you last season while co-managing the farm with Sarah.  This will be my 7th season of farming (5th year of farming in the Hudson Valley) and am very exited to continue my work in the gardens at 81 Clove Valley Road!  We are currently interviewing potential co-managers, but in any case are committed to continuing the CSA in the spirit of Sarah & Kevin.  The land will continue to be farmed regeneratively, using no-till permaculture techniques, with a mission of sustainability, community-building, and education.  We will continue to host a series of potlucks, workshops, and other community events.

    Please continue being part of the farm community in whatever way best works for you.  In order to best plan for the fast-approaching growing season, we are asking CSA members to renew their commitments as soon as possible. Thanks to those of you who have already!  We hope you'll choose to join us for another abundant season of  a wide variety of fresh, nutritious, delicious, and beautiful produce!  Please reply to this e-mail (using the new email below) either way to continue receiving information about our various community events and market days.  Hope you're having a peaceful & joyful winter and look forward to seeing you on the farm this season!With Love,Aileahclovevalleyfarm@hotmail.com
