Owosso Organics

We are gearing up for the 2026 season and inviting you to join our CSA. For the 20 week season. We have two share sizes: Standard share for a family of two and Premium share for a family of four or a vegetable loving family of two. Also a 10 week flower share for you or to give to family or loved ones. More info about whats in a CSA box are found here on the website and check out the birds eye view of the farm.

Looking forward to growing food for you family in 2026

Hey folks,

I have been absent on this site for some time, but know we are doing lots behind the scenes to get ready for the 2026 farming season.

You can get the 2026 CSA Membership form by clicking here! 

We are  finishing ordering  seeds and putting the finishing touches on our farm plan. We look forward to growing food and beautiful flowers for our farm community this season.

Hey folks, just want everyone to know that we are extending our CSA membership sign up beyond the previous May 1 cut off date. There has been a great deal of interest in our CSA this season and we want to make sure to  give folks enough time to make the decision to join. We will likely extend sign up time through the month of May. This includes vegetable shares as well as flower shares.

There has also been a lot of interest in our vegetable transplants. As things sit right now we will NOT be able to sell our plants at the Meridian Farmers market. We are brainstorming ways to make our plants available to you while still maintaining social distancing. One idea we are throwing  around is making the plants available through pre-order where you can e-mail me the plants you want and we can either deliver them directly to you (for a fee) or  figure out a central pick up site, one for Owosso  pick up and one for Okemos/ East Lansing pick up. All plants would be pre-order only. Email me (owossoorganics@yahoo.com)     if this is something you are interested in.

Stay safe everyone. Thank you again for all your interest and support for our farm.   Here are a few pics

Hey folks,

I know these are scary times and we feel that right with you. We haven’t left the farm but for a couple grocery runs in over 3 weeks. But I want to let you  know that we are still farming and doing all our usual spring farm chores: seeding in the greenhouse, transplanting, farm clean up work etc. We are 100% committed to growing certified organic food for your family this summer and we have never felt this responsibility so deeply. We are unsure as to the state of our current farmers markets this summer. The best way to guarantee receiving our vegetables and flowers is to join our CSA. If you are unsure about which size share you want, refer to the “What’s in a CSA Box” page to see images of a standard size box. Know that premium size boxes are approximately double the size of a standard size. We have pickups on the farm and in Okemos at the site of the Meridian Farmers market. Pick up is on Mondays from 5:00-6:00PM. We are discussing various ways to implement physical/ social distancing during pick ups. Sign up will continue until May 1 then we will reevaluate available spots. Take care my friend. We hope to have the privilege of growing your food this summer.     Pooh

Here are some recent pics.

Hello and please forgive my absence from this page. This mild winter has had us doing a number of long forgotten projects as well as some much needed R and R. As January turns to February we are gearing up the farm for this upcoming season! I hope to have the 2020 CSA membership form up on this website sometime next week. It is a PDF for you to copy, fill out and mail to the farm along with your share size, place of pick up and payment. I am currently securing the location of our Okemos/ East Lansing pick up and hope to continue at the site of the Meridian Farmers Market on Mondays from 5-6PM. We will continue to have additional pickup on the farm also on Mondays from 5-6PM.

We thank you for your continued support! I am trying to figure out if I will send a brochure of try to direct customers to they website. Many thanks for your interest in Owosso Organics.

Here are some random pictures I hope you enjoy!

Garlic Field

We have been busy getting ready for this season and our greenhouse are busting with plants waiting to get planted in the fields. But, so much rain!!! There has been standing water somewhere on the farm for the last 5 weeks. The cold wet spring has put us behind in our planting schedule but all we can do is wait and be patient until the ground dries enough to work the soil.

We still have spaces available in our CSA so please tell your family and friends. The membership form can be found here as well as pictures of what’s is a typical standard size box. We also have flower share available.

Here are some pictures from this spring.

Seeds are germinating in our makeshift kitchen seeding room while we wait for this unusual cool weather to leave. It’s supposed to be 40 degrees but today only reaching 13! Once we fire up the nursery greenhouse we will be madly seeding in order to catch up.

Many thanks to all who already signed up for our CSA. There are still spots available. I know it doesn’t look anything like spring looking out the window but the weather will turn soon. If you are thinking of joining our CSA we suggest you do it soon as spots are filling up.  Many thanks!

So much planning and plotting going on here lately as well as tax preparation and the beginnings of our organic certification papers. Many thanks to all who have reached out to us with your 2019 CSA membership. We are so grateful for each and every one of you. There is plenty of room to join our CSA this year. I will be sending out brochures next week!

This crazy weather has kept us on our toes. The schools were closed all last week and some of this week. The farm looks like a skating rink right now and we are having a hard time moving the water with our skimmer pumps because they keep freezing on us!

Here are a few pics. Remember you can follow us on Instagram by clicking on the right side of this page.

A new cleaner look for our website!

This site should be running way faster than in the past so the information should be easier to  access and its mobile friendly!  Many thanks to our dear friend Doug Berch (master dulcimer builder, fantastic musician, web created and all around fine human being).

Farm news:

As the temperatures fall below zero we are warm and cozy in the farmhouse working on our seed orders. First we brought all our seeds  inside and took a complete inventory of what we have on hand, also making a list of the new varieties we plan to grow this season. Now its time to cover the kitchen table with seed catalogs and get down to business. The flower plugs have been ordered and we will be growing 8 different colors of lisianthus this year.

The new 2019 Owosso Organics brochures are planned to be mailed the first week in February so look for those in your mailboxes. Remember if you want to join the CSA before you get a brochure you can go to the 2019 CSA membership form page, copy it off and mail it to the farm with your payment.

Thanks to everyone who has already signed up for the CSA; your support means a lot to us. I’m also working on a website dedicated to my photography. Hope to have that up and running in a week or so.

Here are some farm pics…

Hey folks, We are starting to take CSA memberships for this 2019 season! If you go to the Page (2019 CSA Membership) and click on the link it will take you to a PDF where you can copy it, fill it out and mail it to the farm. Sorry we can’t do this online yet but think of the excitement of finding an good old-fashion stamp and putting it in a mail box! WoooHoo!

Wondering what size fits your family? There is a page that says What’s in a CSA box. All the pictures represent standard size boxes and you can get a visual feel for what’s in a box as the season changes.

We are getting excited for this upcoming season and will soon be finishing our seed orders. Here are a few vegetable images to get you all thinking of the spring.
