The new farmers' market will pair perfectly with their CSA program. It's a pre-paid debit program of either $150 or $300 that allows you to buy seasonal produce, seeds, starter-plants, local honey, maple syrup, NYS cheese, baked goods, and much more while helping your local farmer. Wagner Farms tells us:

It's not your average CSA, cash flow is important in agriculture, the CSA model gives farmers cash flow up front and you the products you so desire in season, ours gives you a full years worth of buying power, from the day you buy through December 31st 2021.

Wagner Farms is so much more than produce. They have a great event center, the outdoor venue offers sunflowers, wagon rides, corn and sunflower mazes, live music, and special events, and is included with your CSA purchase. Yes, you'll receive a VIP pass to enjoy everything they offer.
