Noble Gnome is CSA a different way!

Community. Supported. Agriculture.

Noble Gnome is a produce farm dedicated to providing fresh local produce to those in need in our community. 

Thinking through every step of the process on their farm from the nutrition in the soil where plants grow, to the finished goods in consumer hands, Noble Gnome’s mission is to provide our community with fresh, reliable, nutrient dense food options.

 

 Thousands of pounds of fresh seasonal produce is harvested and delivered, May – October.

All of Noble Gnome’s produce is grown locally using regenerative and organic practices, and harvested at peak ripeness resulting in high-quality nutrient-dense produce.

Through Dane’s Family Food Pantry, Noble Gnome distributes this fresh produce to our guests who can benefit from it the most.
