Access to healthy food is a human right.
Soil health is the basis of true food security.
Farms can serve as catalysts of community renewal.
Small and mid-sized organic farms can feed the world.
Growing and sharing food produces joy and authentic relationships.
Farmers deserve to earn a living wage.
Everyone deserves to be treated with dignity and respect.
In the last few years, EarthDance has worked toward making our produce as accessible within our community as possible. We share our produce year-round, directly within our community and with a variety of food access distribution partners. Each is a unique part of the beautiful, local food web. We are thankful for every partnership. Read on for more on how you can access EarthDance produce.
People can also enjoy EarthDance produce by participating in a workshop or joining us for an event at the farm. And, many hands contribute to our yields, and we recognize this by in turn sharing our harvest. March to November, apprentices, interns, volunteers, and staff receive a weekly share of the harvest.
Source our produce directly from us, and pay what you can for it.
Pay What You Can means that our prices are flexible. If you need some produce, come get some at no cost, we got you! If you need a discount on your total, we got you. Another option is to pay the suggested retail value. Or, pay more than retail value to donate so someone else can enjoy the same fresh produce at a price they can afford.
At EarthDance, in our Pay What You Can Farm Stand, open Fridays 3 – 6 pm and Sundays 11 am to 3 pm, May through November (open Fridays only in October & November)
At the outdoor Ferguson Farmers Market, pay what you can, weekly on Saturdays from 8 a.m.-noon, May through November, at 501 S. Florissant Rd., in Ferguson.
At the Ferguson Indoor Farmers Market, pay what you can, monthly on the third Saturday of the month from 9am-Noon, November through April, at St. Stephen’s Episcopal Church in Ferguson, 33 N. Clay Ave. in Ferguson.
