A Box That Changes With the Seasons
When you farm in Vista, you learn to listen.
You watch the mornings warm up earlier than most places.
You notice when citrus sweetens, when tomatoes finally smell like tomatoes, when greens thrive instead of struggle.
At Sand n Straw, we don’t grow food to fit a schedule.
We grow food to fit the season.
That means winter boxes filled with bright oranges, lemons, kale, carrots, and greens that love the cool air.
Spring brings berries, herbs, and that first sweetness after winter.
Summer is loud and overflowing — tomatoes, melons, peppers, squash, stone fruit.
Fall slows us down again with avocados, pumpkins, pomegranates, and cozy meals.
Our CSA isn’t about perfection.
It’s about rhythm.
Some weeks feel abundant and overflowing.
Some weeks are quieter and simpler.
But every box reflects what the land is offering — right now.
When you join our CSA, you’re not just buying produce.
You’re stepping into a relationship with a farm.
With the people who plant, harvest, and pack your food.
With the seasons themselves.
And over time, something shifts.
You start cooking differently.
Shopping differently.
Paying attention.
You taste the difference — and you feel it too.
If you’ve been craving food that feels more real, more grounded, and more alive, we’d love to grow for you.
