Community Supported Agriculture (CSA)

download the csa brochureThe aim of Community Supported Agriculture is to build a healthy community by providing a local, organic food supply and re-establishing a relationship between the community and the farmer. It is a partnership and at its core is mutual commitment: the farm feeds the people, the people support the farm and share in the inherent risks and potential bounty. This relationship increases community involvement in food production and in the health of the local economy and environment.
