What Exactly Is a CSA?
Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) is a food production and distribution system that directly connects farmers and consumers. In short: people buy "shares" of a farm's harvest in advance and then receive a portion of the crops as they're harvested.
This allows us as your farmer, to earn important pre-season capital and to have a guaranteed market for our produce. For you the consumer, you get to enjoy overall lower food costs, local-field-fresh produce, and greater access to high-demand fruits and vegetables like strawberries and heirloom tomatoes. As a bonus, our CSA offers more than fruits and vegetables. We also offer farm fresh eggs, honey and flowers.
What is a local food system?
A local food system is a collaborative network that integrates sustainable food production, processing, distribution, consumption, and waste management in order to enhance the environmental, economic, and social health of a particular area.
