What our Members Say

Our CSA share with Pachamama Organic Farm was the best! The veggies were incredibly tasty, clearly grown with care and love. Each week, I would be delighted by what was in our share box: the sweetest, best Edamame, tasty beets and greens, crisp kale, crunchy carrots that usually wouldn’t make it home from the pickup! I’m not a huge Brussel Sprouts fan and Lauren and Ewell succeeded in converting me! I’m sending in my deposit for next year’s share and can’t wait! Thanks, Pachamama!

Signing up for a food share with Pachamama Organic Farm for the summer season was my first experience with a CSA. It proved to be a wonderful experience which I hope to continue next year. Most of all, it was a great learning experience. Along with traditional vegetables, I was introduced to some that I had never prepared or even eaten before. Each week’s share of veggies was accompanied by a weekly newsletter containing very helpful recipes along with other tips for fixing them. Picking up my share each week at the Boulder Farmer’s Market was a pleasurable experience as well, as I was always warmly greeted by my first name and made to feel like one of the team at Pachamama.

I’ve been able to get my family to eat more and varied greens & vitamin rich veg than ever before - it simply tastes great! For me, that’s a simple decision about what I want in my kids’ bodies and my own. I want my kids to know the how and what and where of the food they eat. And, I also found out -- Farmer Lauren and Farmer Ewell - they are real people! And did I mention that I eagerly anticipated every week’s box of produce - it was like opening a present! Finding out what was growing that week and stretching my culinary skills to learn to cook veg I had never even had to courage to buy before.

How can we thank you enough for such a beautiful experience with your food and your farm this summer? We didn't feel right about wrapping up the growing season without taking a minute to share with you how much be enjoyed being part of your family farm. First, the veggies were gorgeous, abundant, nutritious, and tasty. We loved the challenge of preparing vegetables we might not otherwise have sought out in a grocery store; it broadened our culinary horizons and made our meals so much more colorful than they would have been otherwise. True, we sometimes had to work hard to use or freeze all of the produce each week, but the experience of eating seasonally was truly satisfying. I believe our family is so much healthier for it. Most importantly for us though, was the opportunity to be intimately connected with the source of our food. My boys looked forward to Tuesdays all week long, and they seemed to come alive as they fed the horses, played on the tractors, and explored the fields. Your hospitality in sharing your farm with us was so special; I can't stress enough how important it has been to watch our children grow to appreciate the importance of knowing where their food comes from. Ewell is quite the hero at our house! Each night as we sat down to dinner, our typically picky 4 year old would examine his vegetables and ask, "Did Ewell grow this for me?". When we answered affirmatively, he would gobble up every bite! Knowing that the food was lovingly harvested for him by a friend made his mealtimes so much richer, both literally and figuratively! Having participated in other CSAs in year past, we can unequivocally say that our experience at Pachamama has been the best by far. We truly felt like we were a part of supporting local farmers who in turn supported our family in ways that reach far beyond simply putting veggies on our plates. We are already looking forward to next spring!
