Peaceful Belly Farm & Ploum Bolum CSPA Shares are now for sale.
2026 CSPA shares are now available
We’re thrilled to share that the Peaceful Belly Farm CSPA (Community Supported Participatory Agriculture) is now part of our new nonprofit, Polum Bolum — an organization devoted to nourishing both people and the land through education, community, and the art of growing good food.
A CSPA is more than a box of vegetables; it’s a living relationship with the soil, the farmers, and the seasons that feed us.
Give yourself the gift of vibrant health and connection — or share it with someone you love. A CSPA makes a meaningful holiday present: one that brings fresh, organic food to the table and supports the regenerative work of a local farm community.
Join us in growing something beautiful for the year ahead. 🌱

Our CSA evolved into a nonprofit to better align with our mission of serving the community. While we started as a small farm providing fresh, local produce, we recognized that our work went far beyond agriculture. Offering education, hosting free community meals, and ensuring access to healthy food for everyone are core values that define what we do.
As a nonprofit, we can expand these efforts, partner with like-minded organizations, and secure funding to reach more people. This structure allows us to focus not just on providing food but also on fostering a sense of connection, learning, and support within our community. Becoming a nonprofit helps us truly live out our commitment to sustainability, equity, and making a positive impact.

Join us in the greenhouse or out in the fields to grow and harvest fresh produce for our CSA. Volunteering with us isn’t just about helping the farm thrive—it’s also a chance to take home fresh vegetables as a thank-you for your time and effort.
We welcome volunteers of all skill levels, and children are encouraged to join with adult supervision. It’s a wonderful way to connect with nature, give back to the community, and learn about sustainable farming.
Sign up for our volunteer newsletter to stay updated on all opportunities and events. We’d love to have you as part of our team!

Polum Bolum is a word that may seem like a whisper on the wind, the sound of children’s laughter, or a story waiting to be told and re-told. It carries the weight of something ancient, something powerful. It is the feeling that stirs within when we gather with purpose to create beauty—when we take part in activities that nourish the earth and our spirits, when we find hope, build community, and return to the land.
It is more than a word; it is a spell—an invocation of radical magic. A magic rooted in the deep connection between all living things. Polum bolum is the essence that calls us to remember our place in the circle of life, to witness the beauty of the world, and to recognize our shared responsibility in its care.
When we speak it, we laugh. It feels soft in the mouth, like a riddle waiting to be unraveled. We are reminded that we are not separate from the earth; we are woven into it, part of the same breath, the same heartbeat. Polum bolum is the sacred energy that embraces both the sorrow and the joy of life. It reminds us that we are all part of the great web, and by tending to the land, we tend to ourselves and to each other.

This movement toward becoming a nonprofit will benefit us all in profound ways. As a nonprofit, we can access more resources, form valuable partnerships, and receive increased support that will directly translate into more food for our community. With the ability to expand our programs—such as donations, CSA shares, the free farm stand, and community meals—we will be able to reach even more people in need. We can also continue offering field gleanings and welcoming volunteers to receive fresh produce, ensuring that everyone has access to healthy, nutritious food.
By coming together as a nonprofit, we strengthen our mission and build a more resilient, supportive community where everyone has the opportunity to thrive.

Yes!! in fact, this movement to a non-profit will benefit all of us. Do not worry
CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) is a beautiful way to weave deeper connection between local farmers and the people who nourish from their fields. By joining our CSA, you become part of the rhythm of our farm — investing in the season ahead and sharing in the abundance (and occasional surprises) of what the land offers. It’s a relationship of trust and gratitude between farmer, eater, and earth.
Your share reflects the true cost of growing food with integrity — soil tended by hand, seeds chosen with care, water honored, and ecosystems protected. Each box is a love letter from the land, grown right here in the Treasure Valley to keep small family farms thriving and rooted. Sign up now and join the circle.
A CSA share isn’t for everyone — the harvest changes with weather and season, and the farmers choose what’s ready each week. If you love to cook, explore, and eat with the seasons, you’ll be right at home. If not, we’d still love to feed you — come visit us at the farmers market and taste the season’s best. 🌿
A CSA share is a huge savings. You get to relish in the bounty of our farm and eat organic and local.
We believe in the goodness of the earth and create a community of reciprocity with all the beings we share the farm with.
