Community Sponsored Farm Shares


Siena Farms is proud to offer Community Sponsored Farm Shares to increase equitable access to fresh, healthy vegetables in the Greater Boston area and New York City. We’re excited to partner with the YMCA of Greater Boston, the Boys & Girls Clubs of Boston, and Sanctuary for Families in NYC to support their missions of hunger relief by bringing our farm’s fresh vegetables to local families facing food insecurity – with your help.

How It Works

Your purchase of a Community Sponsored Farm Share will cover the cost of a Siena Farms Vegetable Farm Share delivered directly to a family in one of our partner networks. The farm has discounted the price of the shares by 20% to support this effort, and we’ve structured the following options for you to consider. Your secure online purchase can be made below; we’ll take care of it from there in terms of coordination and distribution.
