Be a Locavore in 2024!

LOCAVORE  /lōka vôr/ : A person whose diet consists principally of locally grown, raised, or produced foods. The locavore movement encourages consumers to buy from farmers’ markets or even to produce their own food. The argument is that fresh, local products are more nutritious and taste better. Their belief is that supermarkets, while inexpensive and able to offer seasonal foods all year long, aren’t really offering the best food.

J.A.D.S. Farm Market is supplied primarily by John D Madura Farms in Pine Island, NY

  • 300-acre Family-owned Black Dirt farm (15 minutes from the farm stand)
  • Seeds and plants are never GMO. (Genetically Modified Organism)
  • We practice IPM. (Integrated Pest Management) so no unnecessary or preventative spraying
  • We are certified by the USDA in GAPs (Good Agriculture Practices) and Food Safety

*We have been farming since 1996, our Farmer has a vast knowledge about varieties and growing habits.

How our CSA works:

[Click here for 2024 CSA Registration Forms & Prices]

You purchase a share in the Spring. We then thank you for helping us to start up by adding to your share (debit) a Bonus Dollar amount based on your sign-up date
The seeds of the season are planted, nurtured, and harvested (with Mother Nature’s Grace). Our Farmer Friends notify us as their items peak, become available, and are ready to join ours at the Stand. Truly LOCAL means everything is based on seasonal readiness!

Now it’s time to shop!

We are open 7 days a week from March 21 (for the early Easter) through December 31, 9am – 5pm. You come to “shop” whenever it is convenient for you, and get as much or as little as you want. Come once or twice a week, or even skip a week if you’d like

Your purchase is then deducted from your “share”. Use your share to purchase ANYTHING at the Farm Stand – from plants to produce, honey to burgers.

Our CSA members build a healthy friendship with the farmer, his family, and the staff at J.A.D.S. Not only do you get the sign-up bonus, but we also do Member First and BOGO sales. And let’s not forget those “try me” samples!

Locavore Items you can find besides our plants & produce: fresh seasonal fruits, brown eggs, cheeses, Cream line milk, grass-fed and finished meats, baked goods, gourmet ravioli, jams and sauces, compound butter, seasonal cider and eggnog, natural harvest pickles, and the list grows……

We feel that because you choose what you want, on your schedule, there is way less wasting of food when you are a part of our CSA Program.

So not only are you becoming a part of a Healthy Movement, you also get the Bonus for signing up, the special deals throughout the Season, AND special bulk prices at preserving time! You also won’t have a refrigerator filled with unknown or unusable items, so there’s less waste!

BE A LOCAVORE IN 2024!

Memberships go fast and the EARLIER YOU SIGN UP the BIGGER YOUR BONUS!

Yours in Farming — John and Kristie Madura, J.A.D.S. Farm Market
