WordPress theme for farms & CSAs
A farm site as good as the farm
Bushel is a fast, accessible WordPress theme for direct-market farms and CSAs. What's in season, how to join the CSA, where to find your stand, and the story behind the farm. Built to look handmade, not templated.
Most farm websites don't do the farm justice
You grow beautiful food and the website looks like a 2009 brochure. Customers can't tell what's in season, when the stand is open, where to find you, or how to join the CSA, so they give up and drive to the grocery store. Bushel answers those questions on the first screen.
A look inside
Built for how a farm actually sells
These are the pages a farm or CSA site lives on, ready before you add this week's harvest.
Join the CSA
A membership page that explains the shares, the season, the pickup, and the cost, then sends people to your signup. The CSA is your steadiest income, so it gets the clearest page.
What's in season
A living list of what you're harvesting now, so customers know it's worth the trip this week. Update it in minutes from your phone.
The farm's story
The reason people choose your food over the grocery store is you. A proper about page for the farm, the family, the land, and how you grow.
Where to find you
Stand hours, market days, directions, and a map in one place, so a first-time customer can actually show up.
On every screen
Looks right on a phone, where a customer checks your hours from the car. The layout reflows instead of shrinking.
No commerce to babysit
Sign-ups link out, nothing to maintain
Bushel doesn't bundle a store or a payment plugin, and that's on purpose. Your CSA signup and online ordering link straight to the platform you already use, whether that's Local Line, Harvie, GrazeCart, or your own WooCommerce shop. The theme stays fast and simple, and you never have to keep a commerce plugin patched and secure.
The difference
No page builder. That's the point.
Most farm and CSA themes are built on Elementor or WPBakery. They load slowly, they bury your content in shortcodes, and they tie your site to a plugin you have to keep paying for and learning. If you ever switch themes, the site can fall apart.
Bushel is built natively for the WordPress block editor, the one already inside WordPress. Nothing extra to buy. Pages load fast because there's no builder weighing them down. Your content is stored as plain WordPress content, so it stays yours. The result is a site that's quicker for your customers and simpler for you.
