5 Loaves Farm Creating sustainable market gardens on Buffalo’s Upper West Side that produce healthy foods along with educational and economic opportunities.

For farmhouse rental inquiries, please email [email protected]. 5 Loaves Farm creates sustainable market gardens on Buffalo’s Upper West Side that produce healthy foods along with educational and economic opportunities for neighborhood residents. The lack of healthy foods in what have been called “urban food deserts” is well documented. Just as Jesus’ first followers looked at the hungry

masses and humbly offered five loaves of bread and two fish to feed them, we too respond with compassion by bringing our five city lots and two community gardens to feed the hungry. Our spiritual convictions, along with our neighborhood’s vacant land and eager youth, provide the fertile soil needed for this initiative to grow to meet the need.

5 Loaves Farm... ..plants gardens and creates green houses to grow healthy foods...is committed to making healthy foods available and affordable to our neighbors by offering a CSA and seeking to partner with local markets and school lunch programs...donates a portion of its produce to local soup kitchens...is committed to using sustainable growing practices...provides educational programs for adults and school groups..has internship opportunities available for neighborhood youth throughout the year.

🌱 Our Spring CSA is FULL, but there's still time to join our 22-week Summer CSA!

Curious if a CSA is right for you? Here's what you need to know:

🍅 How much food? A picture says a thousand words. Swipe for visual examples from previous CSA weeks.

🥬 Do I choose my produce? Sometimes! Options increase during peak season, like choosing between kale and chard, or onions and green onions.

🛍️ Pick-up experience? Thursdays, 4-7pm, at the farm. Bring your bag and enjoy our "market-style" pick-up with friendly staff and interns to guide you.

🌟 Why CSA? Fresh, nutrient-packed, farm-picked produce you won’t find at the store, plus it feels good to support a more just and localized food system.

Sign up now to secure your spot for our Summer CSA starting June 5th! Weekly or bi-weekly pick-up options and sliding scale pricing available. 🌽
