Our Farmers

All Erie Fresh Certified Farmers grow naturally without the use of harmful chemicals, and ensure a quality of excellence for our CSA members.

Also, all farmers are participants in the Firelands Watershed Produce Program that works to connect Restaurants with local farmers in the effort to build food security, and establish a sustainable food system.
