See what our veggie box members have to say about their experience. “The average food item on a U.S. grocery shelf has traveled farther than most families go on their annual vacations.” Barbara Kingsolver "The food you eat can be either the safest and most powerful form of medicine or the slowest form of poison." Ann Wigmore If you have a connection with the farm, if you’ve actually walked on the soil of the farm, it nourishes your soul. Nigel Walker When it becomes a revolutionary act to eat real food, we are in trouble. Mark Hyman "Cultivators of the earth are the most valuable citizens. They are the most vigorous, the most independent, the most virtuous, and they are tied to their country and wedded to it's liberty and interests by the most lasting bands." Thomas Jefferson August 23, 1785 Affiliations   |

Chimney Creek Farm CSA Spring Open House May 21, 2017 - Sunday Come join the farmers of Chimney Creek Farm as they offer tours and tastes of their farm on Sunday, May 21, 2017 from 1 to 5 p.m. Deane and Linda Brengle, the Chimney Creek farmers, will be offering tours of their fields & crops, greenhouses, pigs, chickens, and bee hives. They will be answering questions about their growing practices and how their CSA Veggie Box program operates. The farmers will also be serving tastes of the farm - snacks and beverages created from their farm fresh produce & meat. Everyone is invited to attend and to learn more about the new revolution in how food is grown, purchased, and eaten. A CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) is a group of people coming together to support a local farmer by purchasing produce (veggie boxes) directly from the farm for their table. Chimney Creek Farm is a small family farm located in northeast Kent County serving the Grand Rapids metropolitan area and surrounding cities with their CSA (home delivery is an option for time strapped families). They grow everything using only what nature intended. No GMO seeds, no pesticides, and no chemical fertilizers. They do use sustainable farming methods, natural soil amendments, cover crops, compost, and manure to fertilize. The farm is located at 12101 7 Mile Rd NE Belding MI 48809 (northeast Kent County), just a short 30 minute drive from downtown Grand Rapids. More information and a map to their farm can be found online at www.chimneycreekfarm.com This is a rain or shine event. Please wear appropriate footwear for the walking tour. CSA Fall Open House October 15, 2017 - Sunday Come join us Sunday, October 15, 2017 for our Fall Open House, or "Pumpkin Day" as we like to call it here on the farm. This is an exclusive day for our CSA members, their families, and a few special farm friends. Please come hang out with us Sunday from 1-5 p.m. as we celebrate the end of another successful summer CSA season with some tasty treats and pick out a free pumpkin. One for every child (no matter what the age) and for every family. Bring your cameras, it makes for some good pictures. It's a rain or shine event so come prepared.
