First Light Farm's Mini Farm program serves individuals and families who may not have access to a patch of soil where they live, or are looking for a community of like-minded growers to participate with as they grow their own food. We have lost several CSA customers to our Mini Farm program over the years, but the happiness and pride that comes from watching our Mini Farmers sow, maintain, and harvest their own vegetables and herbs is unmatched. So come get your hands dirty and join our community!

We offer two types of Mini Farms: 

  • For the "serious beginning farmer"; and
  • For families who want their children to experience not only the beauty of a farm in the summer and early fall, but also experience the joys of learning to grow their own food!

Mini Farm Plot Sizes and Pricing:
  • 10 x 10 square feet for $150.00/year
  • 10 x 30 square feet for $250.00/year
  • 10 x 60 square feet for $300.00/year
  • 10 x 90 square feet for $400.00/year

Membership and Maintenance Fee:
Besides the annual lease fee, each Mini Farm requires an additional annual $100.00 membership and maintenance fee which allows Mimi Farmers access to the farm whenever you want, use of available farming tools and planting support, irrigation, and access to organically-grown vegetable starts.  Mini Farmers must also sign a liability form as well as sign a membership rules which supports our shared values of maintaining the farm in a spirit of cooperation and friendship.
