21 weekly distributions - $8/week for rotating loaf, $4/week for baguette or $12/week for both

NOTE! Bread shares are only available for Thursday On-Farm pickup.

Claire is an amazing baker and a passionate advocate of local farming. She has also been part of our CSA since the very beginning.

At Ursa Bakery, she uses mostly natural yeasts, mills her own flours from local grains, and is an advocate for heirloom strains of grains in a world where foods, and in particular wheat and grain, are increasingly bred for mass consumption rather than flavor, health or quality. And, oh yeah: Ursa Bakery was named Best Bread in Pennsylvania by Food and Wine Magazine in 2022! It’s nice when folks who share our values are also incredible at what they do. Her bread is a rare gift for which we are beyond grateful.

Sign up in advance to lock in one (or maybe 2?!) of Ursa Bakery’s divine bread loaves in your share every week. You can select rotating loaves, which vary by week, baguette, OR BOTH! Rotating will mostly be sourdough, with occasional yeast bread and include omni, hundo, seedy, and sesamo.

Sign up and find out why like half of our members pick up on Thursdays!

The best eggs you'll ever taste from truly pasture-raised birds at Horseshoe Ranch, one of Urban Roots’ original partners. Deep orange yolks, strong shells: they have an integrity that makes every egg from the store seem fragile.

Eggs are a particularly opaque business. Most eggs are pretty much the same right? When you touch one of these, it is so abundantly obvious how different it is. Should we eat organic or pasture raised? Is cage free almost as good as pasture raised? The answers range from disappointing to frightening. And we try to make a practice of never scaring customers into eating local.

Bryan and Brittney don’t want to scare you either. They used to be vegans, until they decided to spend their lives modeling how eggs should be raised, with respect for the birds, the environment and the consumer.

If we were birds, we wouldn’t want any other farmer. And we never want to eat another egg.

The cheese in this share is truly ridiculous, especially at the price. Really can’t say this enough: if you eat cheese ever, you should get this.

Delicious types of cheeses from Birchrun Hill Farm that change every other week. Birchrun Hills Farm is a family-run dairy in Chester County, raising Holstein cows to make their fresh cheeses.

If your family is cheese-lovers, this is a must have add-on. Cheese varies every other week starting the first week of the CSA. Each share includes two types of cheese, avg. 6-8 oz. of each. Types include: feta, halloumi, cheddar, pimento, blue, forage blanc, camembert and more specialties. It makes every single thing better, and is the key to the CSA salad becoming the easiest and most delicious part of your week.

Mycopolitan Mushrooms are grown in a specially outfitted warehouse in Philadelphia, by our friends Brian and Tyler and their team. His subterranean farm uses earth's thermal mass to buffer temperatures, which means less energy and more chemical-free mushrooms. Growing hyper local ensures the mushrooms are at peak freshness. They sell to some of the finest restaurants around, and the quality is truly on another level.

Brian is a passionate genius of mushrooms, constantly improving his production and facility to keep up with his latest learning. One of the things that impressed us the most, beyond the generous quantity and amount of care that go into each shares, is how he keeps learning and improving. It seems like every week we get to try a new best, as he refines growing and harvest conditions in pursuit of the perfect mushrooms.

These shares are a steal. You always get three kinds, and 1.5 lbs always seems like way more than you thought it would be, in a good way, which is good because they are nutrient-dense superfoods, and we’d be wise to eat them as much as possible.

Each share includes a 1.5 lb mix of 2-3 types of specialty mushrooms every week for 17 weeks. Varieties include King Trumpet, Black Pearl, Chestnut, Shiitake, Blue Oyster, Pioppino, Lions Mane, Maitake, Beech, and Enoki.
