Community Farm

The farm at South Village is all about community supported agriculture. An Organic Community farm means you’ll enjoy environmental preservation and all-around healthier living – starting with farm-fresh vegetables from the community farmers market. Which is also a great place to chat with neighbors.

Spend some quality time with the Earth each day. Plant some flowers, grow some veggies, or head over to what’s sure to be a favorite gathering place for South Village residents – our on-site organic community farm. We guarantee living here will bring you closer to the Earth – and to friends and neighbors, too.
