Details & sources →It means the farm says so about itself. Farms that say they do not spray, without holding organic certification. Plenty of small growers work this way because certification costs more than it returns for them. We record the wording and the page we read it on, and we never certify a farm ourselves or infer one practice from another.
14 of the 17 no-spray farms we list in Iowa publish their own dates, so here is what they say rather than a general rule. Raccoon Forks Farm in Redfield: In its entry in the USDA CSA directory the farm gives a share season running January to December.
2 of the 17 have current-year evidence on their own site or an official directory, which is the only thing we count as confirmed. Blue Gate Farm in CHARITON: The farm says it is sold out for 2026 and is taking wait list names.
None of the 17 say they are cash only. 5 say they take cards or an app. The rest do not publish how they take payment, so we do not say either way. Every listing here links to the page we read it on and the date we checked.
