Community Supported Agriculture (CSA)
As a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) customer, you subscribe to a farm, purchasing a year’s harvest of the farm’s goods. Each week, receive a share of what’s in season. CSAs are great for both the farmer, who knows he or she will have customers’ support throughout the season, and the members, who get a direct connection to their farm. You’ll see the effect of the season and the weather on your farm, try a wide variety of vegetables, and have a regular supply of the freshest food.
