Why Join a CSA?

Community Supported Agriculture is a wonderful opportunity for local farmers to establish a relationship with local consumers. By buying a “share” in a CSA, you are supporting your local farmer and investing in the growth of your own food.

How does this work? Consumers purchase a share of the harvest before the growing season. This helps the farmer with the costs of running her/his farm. During the harvest period, CSA “shareholders” or “members” enjoy a weekly share of fresh, locally grown food as it is harvested. This means:

Your food is fresh.
Your food has not been altered to make it last longer than it is naturally inclined to do.
Your food did not require fossil fuels for its storage, packaging, or transportation.

In short, CSA membership is good for you, your community, and the environment.
