We saw Radical Roots for a year at the Charlottesville farmer's market and occasionally bought…read moretheir produce, but this year we took the plunge and signed up for the CSA. This was a great decision! Our household has just two adults, so we decided to split the CSA with our neighbors (also two adults). It was $250 for each couple (and the CSA lasts at least 4 months), which has turned out to be a great value for all the food we get each week. We pick up our share at Albemarle Baking Company, and it's organized such that all the stuff is in bins and you pick out your own produce. It is seriously an overflowing bounty of vegetables, herbs, and flowers every time we pick it up. As an example, this week's share included: head of lettuce, mesclun mix with edible flowers, swiss chard (or kale), 2 green peppers, 3 summer squash, 1.5lbs big tomatoes plus a bag of cherry tomatoes, a sunflower, 2 zinnias, 3 cucumbers, 3 onions, beets (or okra), and basil.

Bellair Farm has a market-style CSA, which is great because that means you don't get pre-designated veggie choices each week but can instead choose whatever variety you want to fill your bag out of the week's offerings. It's a great value too because on top of your week's worth of veggies there are also pick your own fields that are open to all members to come out and pick green beans, sunflowers, tomatoes, and more to your heart's content! They hold events/workshops on the farm open to anyone, and the barn shop also has a selection of other curated, local goods like honey, maple syrup, jams, etc. that you can buy when visiting. The farm managers are both super friendly and knowledgeable and want to make your CSA/farm/event experience the best possible. They're at the Charlottesville city market every week as well as the Meade Park market on Wednesdays.

I read the google review retorts where they mention contacting the customer for the customer to say that was absolutely not true. Seems to be a theme. Imagine how many customers you alienate that way. My son was following your account as he had been in contact about beef. Our business will go elsewhere.

Do not sign up for their CSA.

I never received broccoli, green beans, eggplant, and finally corn--she showed herself feeding corn to a goat in a Facebook video but I got none in my CSA pickup. This has been a huge waste of money and I quit mid-CSA because I can't see the point receiving produce that I don't really want and very little variety. In my conversations with the family that owns the farm, they have consistently yelled at me. Clearly, the customer is never right in their eyes. I have made my feelings known to them and I want to caution others not to have anything to do with them.

Most of our growers are members of a Mennonite community in the Shenandoah Valley near Bridgewater, VA. They have been farmers for generations.

I didn't have any particular item that I was looking for, but boy did I get some goodies. This will take you a few hrs to walk thru, so plan accordingly. I bought popcorn on the way in, and it was indeed good. Very clean, and alot of shops to wander around in. I went straight into the quilt shop and bought some beautiful material. I plan on making some pillows in the near future. Wow the quilting shop was one for the books, I could have stayed in there for hrs. So many crafting ideas and nice material. They ladies do offer classes, or can tell you who does in the area. They have antique shops, puzzle store, cook ware, toy store, decor and food for purchase. Im sure I missed a few things. This is a must stop if your in the area. All the shops seemed amazing and reasonable priced. Lots of parking, and everyone was welcoming. I met a few fellow antique collectors along the way.
