Who is Little Parsley Farm?
We are Tensi Parsons and Keefe Crowley. Together we are Little Parsley Farm (Parsons + Crowley = Parsley). For 18 years, Keefe pushed the gardening limits of our tiny plot in the city. We are excited to unleash the possibilities of the 10 acres of mixed agricultural land at Little Parsley Farm!
Where are you located?
We are located at 300 Little Lake Rd. Marquette, Michigan in Chocolay township. We are in the Beaver Grove area, which is just 10 minutes south of downtown Marquette.
Do you use chemical fertilizers or pesticides?
We do not! Little Parsley Farm uses sustainable, organic, non-GMO, permaculture methods to produce consistently high-quality fruits and vegetables. We do not use chemical fertilizers, pesticides or herbicides of any type. And in case you were wondering, we utilize three hoop houses for season extension.
What do you grow?
We grow a variety of vegetables, fruits, herbs, edible flowers, and cut flowers.

What is a CSA?
CSA stands for Community Supported Agriculture. It is a system by which people purchase a share from a local farm and periodically receive vegetables and other agricultural products throughout the farming season. For more information on CSA just jump over here.
How can I pay?
We accept cash, check, GooglePay, ApplePay, Venmo, or credit card. You may drop your payment off at LPF or use snail mail. We will send you an invoice for your payment. You can pay for the entire season up front, or you can make a 50% down payment, and then pay your remaining balance later.
What can I expect in my share?
With our weekly shares, we try to offer as much as the growing season will allow. We are excited to include a thoughtful and interesting mix of seasonal vegetables that contains not only expected staples (tomatoes, carrots, onions, lettuce), but also some vegetables that might be less familiar (collard greens, eggplant, unique peppers). Each week we include a letter insert with storage and cooking suggestions, along with recipes that coordinate with that week's offerings to help ease your stress in the kitchen.
What if I want more than what’s in my share?
No problem! We are happy to take your custom order. Just drop us an email or text with your selections and then schedule a time to pick it up from the farm. Or we can add it to your weekly share. Please pay at time of pickup.
What if I want to order bulk items for canning, etc.?
Super! We welcome your bulk orders. Please contact us for availability and special pricing.
Do you offer a Harvest share?
Yes! Just in time for the winter holidays and deer season, we will hand select a variety of in-season favorites for your holiday meal. Some options may be winter squash, potatoes, Brussels sprouts, beets, carrots, onions, garlic, etc.
I’m still not sure… What if I’m not familiar with something you’re offering, or I don’t know how to cook it?
Don’t worry! Each week we include recipes along with cooking tips for the items in that week's share. And you can always email us with any questions. Recipes can be requested at any time.
Can you give me an idea of what you might be offering?
Sure thing! Just remember that each season and each harvest is dependent on Mother Nature, so selection may vary.

That all sounds delicious, but I just can't commit to a CSA at this time. Can I just buy your vegetables whenever I want?
Absolutely! You do not have to be a CSA member to purchase our produce. You can order from us any time it is convenient for you via text, email, or by visiting the farm when we're open.
What else do I need to know?
We strive to make our CSA easy, simple, and convenient for you—and for us. We all share in the risk and the reward of the season. We thank you for supporting us, your locally grown community agriculture. In general, we do not offer refunds. We will try and work with you if you cannot pick up your share at your designated time. We encourage you to share your box with a friend or neighbor if you find yourself unable to pick up your share.
What do you mean we share in the risks and the rewards?
Little Parsley Farm feels a great sense of responsibility to our members. While there can be ups and downs, we are in this together, creating a sense of community. To learn more, jump over here.
