Food Joy & South Auburn Organic Farm

Food Joy is a Maine-based nonprofit organization dedicated to creating a robust and joyful atmosphere surrounding nourishment, food culture, and eating. Building on the belief that humans are dramatically more likely to accomplish an objective that is made fun and easy, we seek to give children and families the tools to make obtaining and preparing nutritious, whole food more joyful, accessible, and feasible. We believe that the ritual of cooking, eating together around a table, and civil conversation enables families and communities to foster the trust, generosity, and communication skills, that are the foundation of democracy itself, as well as to create the basis for a physically healthy life. Our goal is to facilitate the enrichment that occurs through a joyous and robust food culture, because we believe it will ultimately heal our society on a broad scale.

SAOF is the flagship program of Food Joy. We offer a sliding-fee CSA that will knock your socks off. We'll show you that local, organic, seasonal produce is fun, affordable, and delicious! With weekly menu-plans using the items in the CSA, as well as videos, recipes, and cooking tips, you're not alone in your venture to become a seasoned home cook with your family!
