Support our local Community Supported Agriculture or CSA in your area 

A CSA, or Community Supported Agriculture, is a system that connects farmers directly with consumers. Here's how it typically works:

1. Subscription Model: Consumers purchase a subscription or "share" of the farm's produce in advance, usually for a season or a year.

2. Regular Deliveries: In return, consumers receive regular deliveries or pick-ups of fresh, seasonal produce, typically on a weekly basis.

3. Variety of Goods: The produce can include vegetables, fruits, herbs, and sometimes other farm products like eggs, dairy, meat, and flowers, depending on the farm.

4. Support for Farmers: This model provides farmers with upfront capital to manage their operations and guarantees a market for their products, reducing financial risks.

5. Community Connection: It fosters a sense of community, as consumers often have the opportunity to visit the farm, participate in farm events, and develop a closer relationship with the people who grow their food.

The benefits of a CSA include access to fresh, locally-grown food, support for sustainable farming practices, and a direct connection to the source of your food.
