Welcome to Paradox Valley Community Supported Agriculture (CSA)!

Posted by William on March 3, 2009

My wife Vernie Lynn and I (William) recently moved from Northern Missouri to Paradox, Colorado where we are in the process of building a farm that will provide the local area with fresh produce. We have been involved in agriculture for 35 years working within the diciplines of raising organic fruit, vegetables, beef and dairy cattle, sheep, goats, hogs and all kinds of poultry.

We love farming and we were thrilled when we discovered the Paradox Valley. Because of its outstanding soil, great climate and protected valley it is the perfect spot to grows excellent crops, both vegetable and fruit. Not only will the crops do well here as far as large harvests but the food grown on this soil will be packed with nutrition because of the high mineral content of the valley soil.

While studying at Northwest Missouri State University we learned of the amazing ability of the Western mountain soils to produce outstanding crops. And we now feel like a dream has come true to be planting in such a virgin soil.

I am looking forward to providing you with a superior product in our fruits and vegetables because of the amazing natural fertility of the soils here in Paradox.

Creating Paradox Valley CSA is our way to serve local food consumers with the best possible product all year long. We believe that if people eat all year they should have the opportunity to buy local, healthy produce all year as well. Therefore our plan is to supply our shareholders with a basket of succulent seasonal food every week of the year.

We believe in the the power of community and local agriculture and that this power often manifests itself in the form of fine eating opportunities.

The healthier the soils, the healthier the crops, and the healthier the community.

We invite you to join our farm shareholder membership and enjoy a unique 52 week fresh eating experience.

Sincerely,

William DeMille, Professional Farmer
