What is a CSA?
CSA stands for community supported agriculture which marries a relationship between farmer and community member through a food share program. CSA members pay upfront, which helps your farmer cover the cost of seeding & equipment & in turn, gives you an official food subscription dropped off at a central pick up location in the city or for an additional cost, delivered right to your door.
Why Rainbow Forest ?
Rainbow Forest Collective products are non GMO and pesticide free. We provide our customers with a food box and or fresh micro-greens delivered right to our customer or dropped off at a designated pick up location in Winnipeg. We are made up of an eclectic group of community volunteers, workers, trained staff, and professional mentors, who are working together alongside Seeds of Life Alliance members and volunteers to bring mentor-ship and training programs to at-risk-youth.
Our core values are built on the foundation of sustainable and regenerative land base practices that work to re-mediate land and bring together community through the simple time honored tradition of farming.
Since 2015, Seeds of Life Alliance & Rainbow Forest Collective have been working closely with Manitoba Youth Center & OPK (http://www.opkmanitoba.com/) to bring wood working, art therapy, and food growing mentor-ship programs to at-risk-youth.
Your CSA contribution goes back to supporting our food movement program & expanding our mentor-ship programs & community outreach campaigns.
