To join us for the 2011 season, please send us an email.

The Bay Ridge Food Co-op (BRFC) brings together friends and neighbors with a common vision for the food on their tables. A first step in accomplishing that vision is to provide access to healthy, sustainable produce through community supported agriculture (CSA). So, we are proud to announce the formation of Yellow Hook CSA.

In partnership with BRFC the Yellow Hook CSA will be offering fresh, organically-grown vegetables from The Rogowski Farm located in the fertile “black dirt region” of Pine Island, NY. Sustainably-grown fruit will be available from Stone Ridge Orchards of Hudson Valley, NY. We are also evaluating opportunities for providing egg shares.

Vegetables and fruits will be delivered every Thursday evening at Our Saviour's Church located at 80th Street and 4th Avenue. There will be 23 deliveries from June 10 to November 11.

What’s CNG?

Geared toward small-scale, direct-market farmers using natural methods, Certified Naturally Grown uses the National Organic Program (USDA Organic Standards) as a starting point for certifying farms. Certified Naturally Grown farmers and beekeepers share a commitment to work within the natural biological cycles that are necessary for a truly sustainable farming system - a system that works in harmony with micro-organisms, soil flora and fauna, pollinators, plants and animals.
