Santa Barbara County CSAs

CSA stands for community supported agriculture, which is essentially a membership or a share in a local farm. Each CSA or produce delivery service is different. Our list is designed to help you find the one that will be most convenient and appealing to you. We have tried to make this the most comprehensive list of all the CSAs in Santa Barbara County. If you know of other CSAs or farm produce delivery services or if you have updated information for any of the ones listed, please email us. Schedules and prices may change, so check with each organization for up-to-date information. 

CSAs and Produce Delivery Options:


Plow to Porch

They source from approximately 15 different farms in order to bring you the greatest variety possible. Cost is $25+; subscribers can sign up for one of four sized boxes of mixed seasonal produce and can add extras such as meat, eggs, honey, jams, pies and quiches, fair-trade coffee, olive oil and seafood. Recipes included with each delivery. Delivery to Santa Barbara, Goleta, Montecito and Carpinteria is included in the cost.

The Farm Box Collective

The Farm Box Collective has grown from a single farm CSA (formerly Ellwood Canyon Farms) into a CSA collective of local organic farmers that we have worked with for several years. This ensures a diverse weekly box that supports several farms in our community. CSA’s are a critical component in promoting local food. Oftentimes small farmers do not sell their produce to grocery stores and greatly benefit from your support. Every week we do our best to provide a diverse healthy box of seasonal vegetables, fruits and herbs. Cost is $30-45 per week with a variety of add-ons available. Pick up locations in Goleta, Santa Barbara and Montecito.

Happy Chardonnay Day! One of our favorite Chardonn Happy Chardonnay Day! One of our favorite Chardonnay producers is Au Bon Climat @aubonclimat, with its tasting room in historic Presidio neighborhood of downtown Santa Barbara. They currently offer 5 different bottlings of Chardonnay, all from Santa Barbara County grapes, mostly in the Santa Maria Valley AVA.

An homage to the wines of Burgundy, Au Bon Climat features many renditions of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Blanc, with balance and character critical elements and every wine. These wines age beautifully because of their symmetry and restraint.
