Common Ground Farm is a CSA farm located in Beacon, NY 12508, Dutchess County in the Hudson Valley.

From Common Ground: "Common Ground Farm is a farm project that serves our community as an educational model for people of all ages to learn how foods grow, how to raise ecologically sound crops without chemical fertilizers, herbicides and pesticides, and how to keep farmland healthy for generations to come. As a working farm, we strive to interpret anew the agricultural experience and tradition that is a precious part of our nation's heritage.

"We are a nonprofit farm project that grows food for education and food justice programs. We train future farmers and we serve as caretakers of the land. We rely on grants, Farm memberships, and YOUR donations to provide a large part of our funding."

Farmer Training
Through our Farmer Training Program we train youth first to grow organically, and then to work in and around the region in order to gain access for land stewardship. Our apprenticeship program is creating a new generation of farmers, to harvest the land for decades to come. Many of our former apprentices have gone on to start farms of their own.

Education
Throughout the year we offer workshops for adults on topics such as composting, chicken raising and edible landscaping. In addition, our classes for children are designed to connect them to their land, and to see growing food on the farm, as a source of joy and fun. While we are a membership organization, we also open our gates to the public through our programming, open houses and farm tours.
