Community Supported Agriculture

 

Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) is a mutually beneficial relationship between farmers and the community. Participants provide funding for the farmer in advance of the growing season in exchange for produce when it’s ready.

Here’s how One Straw Farm’s CSA works: participants sign up and pay in the spring and then receive eight items a week - June 2 through November 22, 2008. Those items vary according to the season.

They could be beets, lettuce, potatoes, strawberries, a watermelon -- whatever is ripe for picking -- enough to feed a family of four its vegetables for a week. We've tested this with our family and you'll have plenty of vegetables all week and maybe some leftover to freeze for the winter.

One Straw Farm delivers to the following CSA sites:

These are the sites so far this year, organize with ten other like-minded individuals or families and we will deliver to your community as well!
