Beech Hill Farm

Veggies straight from our farm to your table. Beech Hill Farm’s 2026 Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program is now open—and it’s your chance to support sustainable agriculture while enjoying the very best of our harvest.


Box Style CSA

Each week, you’ll receive a curated box with 8–10 seasonal items, grown organically on our farm. Boxes change as the season progresses—from spring greens to summer tomatoes and fall root vegetables.

Sample share in June
Lettuce, spinach, kale, carrots, herb bunch, radishes, scallions, rhubarb

Sample share in September
Zucchini, cucumbers, beets, tomatoes, bell peppers, basil, onions, garlic

Bonus: Box Style members get 10% off all purchases in our farm stand.

Schedule:

  • Summer Share: June 19–August 21
  • Fall Share: August 28–October 30

Pick-up times:
Thursdays, 3–7 PM at either Beech Hill Farm or the COA campus in Bar Harbor.

Beech Bucks: debit-style CSA

Prefer to choose your own produce each week? Beech Bucks offers the flexibility of a gift card—with a 10% bonus!

  • Buy in $100 increments
  • Receive $110 in value for every $100
  • Spend your Beech Bucks card anytime at the Beech Hill Farm stand
  • Good for produce, meat, dairy, baked goods, gifts & more

Pick up your card starting June 15 at the farm stand. Reload anytime.


How it works

When you join a CSA, you purchase a “share” in our farm’s growing season. This early investment helps us plan for staffing, supplies, and seeds—and in return, you receive a portion of our harvest each week.

We offer two CSA options to fit different preferences and budgets:

  • Box Style CSA – pre-packed weekly produce boxes
  • Beech Bucks – a free-choice, debit-style share

Sliding scale pricing

We use a community-supported sliding scale to make the Box Style CSA more inclusive. Please consider your financial situation and contribute at a level that aligns with your resources.

Summer or fall CSA (10 weeks):

  • Well below median income: $225
  • Below median income: $300
  • Median income: $350
  • Above median income: $400
  • Contributing neighbor: $475
