Voted Vermonts BEST CSA in 2024 by Seven Days

At Paul Mazza’s, we offer two CSA options to fit your lifestyle: the Traditional CSA, where we curate a weekly selection of fresh produce for you, and CSA Your Way, which gives you the flexibility to choose your produce on your own schedule. Read below for a brief overview of our two programs!
Traditional CSA – Fresh, Local, and Hand-Selected for You!

Each Saturday, members pick up their share at our Essex farm, where they receive a variety of fruits and vegetables. The amount and variety depend on the share size, ensuring you always get a delicious, well-rounded selection. This is a great option for those who love the surprise of seasonal eating and the convenience of pre-selected produce!
