We are excited to be finishing our 2025 CSA this week! It’s been a long season with lots of ups and downs. As I was putting up the information for the 2026 CSA, reviewing crops from this year with my farm partners, writing a crop plan for next year, buying seeds, taking Wendell to basketball practice and celebrating Alder’s first full week of school in 2 years…I have the feeling of being on the cusp of things slowing down. We will take a trip to see family and friends. We will celebrate. We will rest.

We don’t start spring seeding till February, so we get a short window of rest and maintenance. We will begin spring CSA in April, so until then things are a little slower. We hope you all get time to rest and recover this winter too, though we know each job, each life has different seasons. We have struggled with mental and physical illness in our family as well as just the baseline of a neurospicy household. We know you all have struggles as well and we hope that as a community we can hold each other up, give support when needed, make meals for each other, care for each other.

We wish you all a peaceful holiday season.

Love from Around the Table Farm

Welcome to CSA 2023! We added a few options this year part way through, so now you have even more options for local food! We offer our base of a veggie and fruit box, then you can add eggs or flowers from our farm, cheese from Chimacum Valley Dairy, honey from Gaia’s Harmony Farm, wine from Bainbridge Vineyards and wild caught salmon from Slow Boat Fish Co.

Here we are with some summer produce! Our CSA boxes have a full range of veggies, which rotate weekly and seasonally. From sugar snap peas and salad in the spring to strawberries and carrots in the summer to sweet peppers and potatoes in the fall, we grow the full spectrum of veggies as well as some fruits. Our flowers bring beauty to your table where you can enjoy the tastes, smells and sights of local farming!

Here are our potatoes and dry beans in 2022. This field is at our leased land down the street on Pugh. We had an amazing crop of potatoes this year, producing lots of varieties: Desiree, Bintje, German Butterball, Ruby Crescent, Amarosa and Carola. We enjoy growing multiple tasty varieties of each vegetable that we grow. For the most part, we grow heirloom and open pollinated varieties, always with organic methods.

Here we have “Super Alder” showing off his talent for breaking rules:) As he leaps over immature chicory toward the zinnias, you can see us picking beets in the background. This is our main field on our property. Strawberries are to the right with our tomato tunnel far right. Brassicas and corn to the left.

Hello All,

We wanted to let you all know that we will not be vending at the Poulsbo Farmers Market for the 2022 season, and for as long as it remains located at Gateway Fellowship. Instead, we will be selling at Bremerton Farmers Market, and continuing sales at our Farmstand and through our CSA. 

As a business, we are committed to equity, inclusion, accessibility, and sustainability. This means everything from our CSA being sliding scale, to farming with a draft horse, from supporting the priorities of the Suquamish Tribe, to helping host a Pride celebration.  At this point, we don’t believe our commitments are in line with the values of Gateway Fellowship and the control they hold over the Poulsbo Farmers Market as its site host. Gateway has told the market that we can’t hold celebrations for such events as Juneteenth, Pride, Indigenous People’s Day, Immigrants’ Day and Women’s Day. Pending a change of location, we have decided that our only choice is to leave the market we have vended at for 11 years. We have many friends who are vendors and customers at the market and are saddened to have to make this decision.  

We are grateful for all your support, and hope you will continue to support us and our work to build community and sustainable accessible food systems in Kitsap county. Here’s where to find us in 2022:

Bremerton Farmers Market – Thursday evenings at Evergreen Park from April 21st-Sept. 29th

Our on-farm Farmstand – self-serve, located on our farm at 20322 Pugh Rd NE, Poulsbo, open every day 9am-7pm

Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) – sign ups are currently open! See more information here: https://aroundthetablefarm.com/csa

If you would like to do more to support equity in our community, we would love you to join our work with Kitsap Showing Up for Racial Justice (SURJ), Kitsap ERACE Coalition, and Poulsbo For All. We are grateful for your support, and look forward to feeding you in 2022!

Blessings to all of you,

Dana, Aaron, Wendell and Alder Steege-Jackson, Clare Menard, Brenda Calderon and Kristofer Heidt

This year you can add sourdough bread from Judith Weinstock of Food Muse Inspirations! Judith’s bread is our favorite and we have been eating it for years. We’re excited to share it with you!

Chimacum Valley Dairy is returning for a third year of providing delicious cheese!

Our CSA shares include a wide variety of vegetables and fruit. We grow everything from sugar snap peas, garlic scapes and salad in the spring, to carrots, tomatoes, and raspberries in the summer to sweet peppers, sweet potatoes and cornmeal in the fall. You will get some of every item we grow throughout the season! We prioritize minimal packaging, so your produce comes in reusable (and sanitizable) totes. We also prioritize affordability with our sliding scale payment, EBT availability and flexible payment plans. Please reach out to us for more information if you need a scholarship or other assistance. For more information, see the CSA page.

Our farmstand is open every day 9am-7pm or so. We have plenty of eggs as well as salad, kale, chard, tatsoi, pac choy, spinach, beets, potatoes, garlic, garlic braids, onions, cornmeal, and sometimes broccoli and carrots. Come on by!

Our CSA sign ups are still open for veggie shares, egg shares, flower shares, cheese shares, wine shares and coming soon honey shares.

Our CSA is sliding scale, so you choose how much you pay within a range for each size veggie share. We also provide payment plans, scholarships and EBT access. Let us know if you have questions or need assistance at aroundthetablefarm@gmail.com and check out the CSA page of the website for lots more info.

Much love from Dana, Aaron,Wendell and Alder as well as Clare, Katie and Milo!

This year we had an amazing CSA and we’re looking forward to next season. We are offering veggies, fruit, grains, flowers, eggs, wine and cheese! Join us in preserving local farmland and draft horse culture.

For our CSA, our small and full size boxes include veggies, fruit and staples (like cornmeal and dry beans). Eggs and flowers can be added on from our farm. Cheese will come from Chimacum Valley Dairy. And, wine will come from Bainbridge Vineyards, where we are worker-owners after training with Betsey for 2 years.

We welcome back three amazing crew next year: Clare, Katie and Milo. They will all be returning members of the farm and will make up an all-star team. We also look forward to farming with our kids who next season will be 7 and 4. Our older son is already a big help, collecting eggs every day, helping with harvest and prep and filling CSA boxes.

We offer a sliding scale, payment plans, EBT and scholarships, so let us know if you would like to use one of these options.

Find more info about the CSA on our CSA page or contact us at aroundthetablefarm@gmail.com. Thanks!

You can come see us at the Poulsbo Farmers Market on Saturdays at Vinland Lutheran Church or our Farmstand at the farm on Sunday-Friday.

Horse-powered as always.

Dandy, after a good day at work:
