About Us
PASEA is a coalition of 16 organic farmers across Santa Cruz, Monterey, and San Benito Counties, united by a shared mission: to grow fresh, local, and sustainably raised food while deepening the connection between the people who produce it and the communities they feed. Rooted in teamwork, sustainability, and a profound love for the land, we are more than just a network of farms—we’re a movement to nourish people and the planet, together.
But we also know that not all farmers have equal access to opportunity.
Small BIPOC farmers face disproportionate barriers to reaching fair, reliable markets. That’s why, through the leadership of Esperanza Community Farms, the PASEA Program is helping level the field—expanding access to community-based and institutional markets for 14 farmers in our food hub. One of these new pathways is our Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program.
By joining our CSA, you’re not just signing up for a box of delicious, seasonal produce—you’re investing in equity, sustainability, and a thriving local food system. Together, we can grow something bigger than ourselves.
Sign up today and be part of a community that cares—about farmers, food, and the planet.
