Know Your Farms – Serving Charlotte since 2008

Know Your Farms is a Charlotte-based service for farmers and consumers that makes it easy to get local foods fresh from the farm.  The CSA (community supported agriculture) provides convenient access to local food to public and private drop sites, workplaces, churches, small businesses, and homes.  We have been supporting small family farms around Charlotte since 2008 and are proud to be the most convenient way to eat healthy, local food in Charlotte.  Unlike many other food providers, we go one step further in our push for a more sustainable food system and believe that education is crucial to succeed in our mission.  We host a farm tour each year in the Charlotte area highlighting the diverse agriculture in our area.  The tour is a great way to meet the farmers and get to Know Your Farms!
