Sun & Bloom Full Farm CSA 2026
SUN & BLOOM FULL FARM CSA
A Prepaid Farm Credit Program for Food, Plants & Experiences
Our 6th year growing for the local community · 3rd year offering a CSA-style program
Sun & Bloom Farms is offering a limited number of 2026 Prepaid Farm Credit Gift Cards — our evolved version of a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program designed for flexibility, transparency, and shared stewardship.
Rather than a fixed weekly box, this program offers prepaid farm credit that you can use throughout the season on the foods, plants, and experiences that best serve your household—while directly supporting regenerative agriculture here in Lebanon, Missouri.
HOW THE SUN & BLOOM FULL FARM CSA WORKS
We are offering two prepaid farm credit options for the 2026 season:
- $600 Prepaid Farm Credit
- $800 Prepaid Farm Credit
As a thank-you for continued trust and early commitment:
- Past Sun & Bloom CSA members receive 10% bonus credit
- New members receive 5% bonus credit
(Example: a returning member purchasing an $800 card receives $880 in total farm credit.)
What you are purchasing is prepaid farm credit and priority (reserved) access to what we grow and offer throughout the 2026 season. Your farm credit is stored digitally under your name and gives you first access—before the general public—to seasonal food, plants, and experiences.
You will receive a Sun & Bloom Farms Gift Card, first or second week of January 2026, showing your total farm credit amount. This gift card is simply the way you use your farm credit—to reserve items online during ordering windows and to pay directly in our on-farm store throughout the year.

HOW PRODUCE PICK-UPS WORK
From early April through the end of October, Full Farm CSA members receive exclusive access to what’s growing—at its seasonal peak—through a clear and consistent rhythm.
We offer a Bi-Weekly (every 2 weeks) Ordering Cycle
- Monday morning:
- Full Farm CSA members receive an email outlining what is available from the farm
- By Wednesday evening:
- Members reserve desired items through our online system and pay using their farm credit - we will offer a well balanced box as an option to those who just wan to click and go
- Friday:
- We harvest reserved items fresh
- Saturday (all day):
- Orders are labeled and ready for pickup at our on-farm store
Additional Availability
During the weeks between the regular bi-weekly cycles, we often send additional Monday availability emails when harvests allow. Full Farm CSA members may reserve and purchase items during these bonus weeks as well.
Farm Store Access
On Saturdays, the farm store will also be stocked with additional items available for walk-in purchase, and Full Farm CSA credit may be used toward these items.
To ensure fairness for all members:
- Some high-demand items may have quantity limits during the reservation window
- Any items not purchased by Full Farm CSA members during the reservation period will be released for general sale on Saturday
SEASONAL PRODUCE OUTLOOK (BY MONTH)
While farming always responds to weather and ecological conditions, the following outlines what we are planning for the 2026 season. We often have produce available before April, but we focus on making April a strong, reliable start for Full Farm CSA members.
April: Arugula, spinach, baby lettuce, head lettuce, baby kales, radishes, turnips, green onions, cilantro microgreens
May: April greens plus carrots, asparagus, peas, parsley, and possibly potatoes and cabbage
June: May selections plus zucchini and beets
July: June selections plus tomatoes, cucumbers, summer squash, basil, sage, and other culinary and medicinal herbs
(Spinach, turnips, cilantro, and some baby greens phase out)
August: Peak summer abundance—continuation of July crops
September: Summer crops plus winter squash; early fall greens return toward the end of the month
October: Cool-season greens similar to April, plus sweet potatoes and possibly pumpkins
WHY THE FULL FARM CSA MODEL
2026 marks our sixth year growing food for the local community and our third year offering a CSA-style program. Through experience, we have chosen to focus on excellent production rather than maximum production.
The Sun & Bloom Full Farm CSA allows us to:
- Grow higher-quality food with deeper soil care
- Sell directly from our farm store using a transparent system
- Stay closely connected to the people we feed
- Dedicate time to helping design and support additional regenerative mini-farms in the Lebanon area
We believe this approach builds long-term ecological, economic, and community resilience.
IMPORTANT DETAILS & POLICIES
- Full Farm CSA credit is prepaid and non-refundable
- Credit must be used within the 2026 season
- No substitutions, custom orders, or special accommodations beyond what is offered
- Reservations close Wednesday evening; late requests cannot be honored
- No delivery; all orders are picked up at the farm store
- Availability is always subject to weather, seasonality, and harvest conditions
These policies allow us to farm responsibly and care for all members fairly.
READY TO JOIN THE 2026 SUN & BLOOM FULL FARM CSA?
We are opening enrollment earlier than usual in response to requests from past members asking when they could secure their place. The Sun & Bloom Full Farm CSA is intentionally limited to ensure quality, fairness, and meaningful connection.
