Russo's Roots

Russo's Roots is a small, family-run vegetable farm operating on 26 acres in eastern Connecticut. The farm was purchased by James Russo and Libby Tarleton in 2014, with the first growing season beginning in 2015. James is a first-generation farmer with decades of vegetable farming experience, and Libby brings a background in vegetable farming and vineyard work. The farm grows a wide range of vegetables, from common staples like tomatoes and carrots to more unusual varieties such as kohlrabi, puntarelle, ginger, and turmeric. Its weekly CSA program offers half and full share options, with multiple pickup locations across eastern Connecticut. The farm also accepts SNAP/EBT payments for its vegetable CSA.
