Local ProjectsFlagstaff Community Supported AgricultureFlagstaff Community Supported Agriculture project. The FCSA connects you to your food, the land, and your local farmer! Each week FCSA participants receive fresh, local, organically grown produce through our support of Crooked Sky Farms in Glendale, Arizona. CSA participants not only enjoy an incredible variety of vegetables, members create a sustainable food system. This model supports the local economy, a stewardship of the land, and fosters a connection with the food you eat. Flagstaff Urban Agriculture ProjectThe Flagstaff Urban Agriculture Project seeks to revive the long standing tradition of agriculture that once thrived in Flagstaff. The goal is to develop a sustainable, commercially profitable and community accessible, urban farming operation. The project is currently running as a partnership between the City of Flagstaff, Flagstaff Foodlink - a non-profit 501c3 and private investment. The Flagstaff Urban Agriculture Project seeks to demonstrate an economically viable urban growing model for the region, elevation and climate. The resulting sustainable farm will feed the burgeoning local foods movement. It will serve as both a supplier and infrastructure to incubate agriculture and local foods, culinary and economic opportunities. Increasing the diversity of the local economy with businesses founded on local food supply, Flagstaff’s economy becomes more vibrant and its food supply, more secure.
