Chagford CSA is a seven-acre Organic market garden on the edge of the town that has been supplying fresh and seasonal veg-boxes to residents of Chagford and it’s neighbouring parishes since 2010. The farm hosts a weekly volunteer day every Thursday when local residents are welcome to come along and get involved in harvesting and packing the veg-boxes. The day offers activities suitable for all ages and abilities – and includes tea & cake at 11am and a shared lunch at 1pm. Volunteers are welcome to come for an hour or the whole day and don’t need to commit to attending regularly – in return they are welcome to take home a box of freshly harvested produce.
