Community Supported Agriculture

I learned about CSA's a few years ago and have kept my eye out ever since for one that might fit the needs of our family. Well I finally found one! For June - October we are paying $275 and will get a 1/2 bushel of produce weekly from them - straight from the field to my fridge! Also we get to go to their U-pick farm (that is open Sept-Nov) as often as we want! Some farms require that you volunteer time working at the farm or they decide what comes in your bushel basket. This farm doesn't have a work requirement and I get to hand select each week exactly what I want to bring home!
I can't tell you how excited I am! We spent $300+ in produce last year between June - October so I know this will be a great deal!

We loved our CSA last year! So much in fact that we are going to try to grow our own garden.

Hope you love it as much as we did!
