We are excited to announce a new season of our CSA. We are expanding and we hope you can be a part of it.
If you are new to the concept of CSA, the basic idea is like a "subscription program" for vegetables. The customer pays up front at the beginning of the season, and the farmer commits to provide a "share" of vegetables each week throughout the growing season.
Quote from Wilson College
"CSA is a relationship of mutual support and commitment between local farmers and community members who pay the farmer an annual membership fee to cover the production costs of the farm. In turn, members receive a weekly share of the harvest during the local growing season. The arrangement guarantees the farmer financial support and enables many small- to moderate-scale organic and/or bio-intensive family farms to remain in business. Ultimately, CSA programs create "agriculture-supported communities" where members receive a wide variety of foods harvested at their peak of freshness, ripeness, flavor, vitamin and mineral content."
If this sounds like something you are interested in, we are currently accepting members for the 2011 season.
