Methodology and limitations
Counts are generated during prerender from the current farm-to-door farm export. Delivery-capable means the farm record has the directory delivery-available field set. CSA or farm-share means the record has a CSA flag or CSA category key. Records with indexable content signals are farm records with enough public content to be candidates for farm-profile SEO surfaces.
This is a directory data snapshot, not a certification that every farm is open now, currently stocked, organic, taking visitors, or delivering statewide. Buyers should use the farm card and contact the farm directly before ordering or driving.
