Community Supported Agriculture is a partnership between farmers and members that helps sustain access to fresh, local produce. It’s a perfect way to get the freshest, most nutritious vegetables and share the bounty.
Members purchase a share at the beginning of the growing season. Each member receives a box of seasonal vegetables during the summer season. Members know where and how their food is grown, and who grows it.
The farmer uses that investment to purchase seeds and supplies at the beginning of the season. It provides a stable income stream and market and the farmer has the opportunity to make a viable income growing food in a healthy, sustainable way that is directly supported by consumers. The farmer also has the pleasure of knowing who their produce is going to.
The farmer and the consumer thus provide mutual support and share in the risks and rewards of local food production.
