“Thank you again so much for all the wonderful produce we have been able to offer to the Laurel Woods community. We serviced almost 70 families this past week that are beyond appreciative! Such a wonderful opportunity for a community that has indicated through a formal needs assessment that access to healthy and affordable food is a need.”

NO FOOD WILL BE WASTED FROM GORMAN FARMs.
It is important that our CSA members know any leftover produce goes directly to supporting the Community and those in need. We are proud of our relationships with our donation partners. Over the past 10 years, we have made substantial donations every week. In 2024, Gorman Farms donated over $55,000 of produce back to our community.
A common concern with a CSA is too much food or wasted food. At Gorman Farms, your food is not distributed in a box. You choose your selections within our offerings. You may take less, without compromising your value because that is built in. Understanding Share Value
All extra produce goes to the effort of giving back. We encourage Full Share memberships, as it positions the member for the best options. If/When it is too much food, never feel bad leaving a few items back. Learn more
Purchasing a Full Share for this reason alone helps Gorman Farms as a ‘Community Supporting Farm’.
Participating in the Gorman Farms CSA is not only providing the means for a farm in the neighborhood but is also giving back to the community through outreach.
These wonderful organizations are all serving the local Howard County community, and those in need struggling to purchase quality and nutritious foods. These organizations take all the fresh produce and add it to their grocery store like setting and open their doors to those in need. It is truly making a community difference.
