FARM SHARE
Corbin Hill pioneered the farm share model over a decade ago with the goal to create a program in which low-income communities, who typically have the least amount of say in their food environment, could participate in a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) model that provided affordable and locally grown produce through a flexible subscription model. At the time, Corbin Hill’s model was novel because CSAs and farmers markets in NYC were more commonly designed to serve small-medium scale farmers and middle-high income consumers, excluding low-income, immigrant, and communities of color. Corbin Hill had reframed and created a better way to serve our communities and continues to do so today as a listening and iterative organization. This model has now been widely adopted across NYC.
