Souhegan Soccer Farm
Signing on memberships for the 2011 garden season, each year we like to add up to 20 new members. We are looking forward to spring projects, hope you can join us for the fun, fresh air and rewards of cool weather gardening (wear your mud boots!). We plan to grow as much variety as possible throughout the season offering our members a fresh organic locally grown alternative to the "mega-store" shopping experience.
The Souhegan Soccer Farm is a CSA or Community Supported Agriculture project started about eleven years ago by soccer player and coach Ben Brewster. The Soccer Farm CSA features a mixed use of farming, soccer and family recreation. From the garden we offer farm fresh produce grown organically without the use of commercial fertilizer and pesticides.
Each year we have a bountiful supply of salad greens, strawberries, peas, onions, garlic, herbs, tomatos, radishes, parsnips, beans, potatoes, eggplant, squash, carrots, peppers, pumpkins and cut flowers. Farm members join regular staff semi-weekly for cultivating, planting, weeding, picking and distributing produce on pick-up days.
Located in the fertile flood plain of the Souhegan River, the Soccer farm offers year round family recreation opportunities including hiking, bird watching, dog walking and scent track training, as well as picnicing, kayaking, cross country skiing, kite and model airplane flying as the seasons and the weather permit.
