We now have two programs!
The first is a traditional CSA farm share model where you pay at the beginning of the season for a weekly basket of freshly harvested vegetables and fruits that are conveniently delivered to your work site.
Our newest program is an on-line market at yourfarmstand.com where employees can choose from a variety of local items such as fresh vegetables, meats, cheeses, baked goods, maple products and much more. The items are then delivered to your work site by the producers.

About the Program
Each growing season RAFFL, Rutland-area workplaces, and local farms team up to deliver the freshest, most nutritious foods to folks right at work.
Employees have reacted enthusiastically, and RAFFL has continued to add new workplaces and new participants. In 2011, RAFFL began Everyday Chef, a cooking program that seeks to inspire participants to cook and eat nutritious local foods, as a resource for Farm to Workplace members and their colleagues.
Local farmers also benefit from the program because it expands their market to new customers. Nearly 70% of the participants had never participated in community-supported agriculture before, and more than 60% rarely or never go to a farmers’ market.
