CSA (Community Supported Agriculture)-

Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) has become a popular way for consumers to buy local, seasonal food directly from a farmer.

The share consists of 6-8 vegetables. Interested consumers purchase a share and in return receive a box (bag, basket) of seasonal produce each week throughout the farming season.

This arrangement creates several rewards for both the farmer and the consumer. In brief:

Advantages for farmers:

• Security of a pre-sold harvest

• Receive payment early in the season, which helps with the farm's cash flow

• Have an opportunity to get to know the people who eat the food they grow

Advantages for consumers:

• Eat ultra-fresh food, with all the flavor and vitamin benefits

• Get exposed to new vegetables and new ways of cooking

• Kids typically favor food from "their" farm - even veggies they've never been known to eat

• Develop a relationship with the farmer who grows their food and learn more about how food is grown
