OUR IMPACT

We are a 501c3 non-profit farm dedicated to increasing public understanding of sustainable food systems. Our mission can be best summarized as “Grow-Give-Teach”. We grow organic, seasonal vegetables in Horsham, PA. We give thousands of pounds of fresh produce to local food cupboards, helping to provide nutritious food to community members who are food insecure. We teach the community about the value of sustainable agriculture, where their food comes from, and educate the next generation of farmers.

ABOUT OURCSA PROGRAM

Pennypack Farm’s CSA is set up to provide high quality, local food, value, choice and an on-farm experience to its members. We offer both Summer and Winter CSA shares so our members can enjoy our produce year-round.

Our CSA pickup is at our farm and offers many seasonal choices. Summer members also get opportunities to pick some of their own strawberries, beans, cherry tomatoes, and more! We offer add-ons of flower picking and a fruit share from a local orchard.

EDUCATION

At PFEC we are committed to teaching the value of sustainable agriculture, where food comes from, and how to grow food organically and sustainably. Our agricultural education programs include a farm apprenticeship and internship, classes and workshops, and our collaborative camp/school program with The College Settlement.

GROW. GIVE. TEACH.

WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING

“Being a part of PFEC has taken the pressure off me to have a fully productive home garden- it helps to know I have a wealth of local, fresh veggies if my home garden doesn’t work out!”

“I love feeding my one year old son fresh, organic food that I know where it comes from. I like showing him where his food comes from and I like knowing that it is nutritious, didn’t use fossil fuels to get here from far away, and was grown with care.”

Second Spring

Second Spring

August is the busiest time of the entire year on the farm. We often call it 'second spring' since we spend much of the month planting crops for fall and winter. And while the actual spring is also a very busy season, "second spring" is coupled with the added...
