The Field Share

At Root to Rise, we believe nourishing yourself should feel like a homecoming: easeful, connected, instinctual while rooted in community and the nostalgia of a true local food network.

We have reimagined the traditional CSA to offer a softer, more flexible way to stay connected to the land, the humans who tend it, and your local food network. The Field Share is a partnership built on choice, designed to rhythmically move alongside the modern needs of your own kitchen and schedule.

Your 6-week Field Share begins with a $30 membership (or $75 if you choose to join us for the full 18-week season), securing your place in our intimate circle of neighbors. Each Thursday of your Field Share, you will receive an early and exclusive "menu drop" for what’s available from our gardens, pastures, and micro-bakery in the week ahead via our private virtual storefront on the app Hotplate.

With the ordering capabilities on Hotplate, you have the freedom to hand-select exactly what resonates with you and what you need—perhaps a crusty sourdough boule, some freshly baked sourdough cookies one week but a dozen farm eggs, or a bundle of heirloom greens. You shop and pay only for what you’d like to stock your home with in the coming days, signaling for us to begin gathering your custom share with intention, ready for a seamless pickup at the farm or in the heart of Lyndonville on your designated day.

This ensures you get first dibs on everything freshly grown and harvested that week, well before anyone can access it at the Farmstand, along with exclusive access to a member-only specialty sourdough items and homemade pantry staples like homemade jams, pickles, and fresh-from-the-garden canned goods.

No more overload of kale, veggies that go uneaten, or an influx of sourdough that you can’t keep up with. This model allows us to pick just what is needed at its peak time and bake just the right amount, maintaining a no-waste harvest and microbakery.

Additionally, any vegetables, flowers, or bread not claimed by our members, sold directly at the Farmstand, or consumed by us as a family are donated to our two local Vermont Food Bank partners, while remaining scraps are used to nourish our pigs and chickens.

When you join our Field Share, you are supporting a cycle that feeds both our community and our land.
