Are you looking to support your local farm and ensure your steady supply of fresh, local food this season? Now is the time to join your local CSA (Community Supported Agriculture)! Participating in a CSA allows farmers to earn income up front, rather than having to wait until they generate income during the season. By doing so, this gives community members a stake in the farm operation, as well as providing needed support for local growers. Learn more about the value of CSA through the following articles:
- “What is Community Supported Agriculture (CSA)?” by TheSpruceEats
- “Everything You Need to Know About Community Supported Agriculture” by Good Housekeeping
- “Where Did the CSA Start? A Brief History of the CSA” by NOFA/Mass
- “Consume Something Awesome: Issue 1” by Hudson Valley CSA Coalition
For farmers considering starting their own CSA, this article from Penn State Extension covers the basics of running a CSA program, and you can learn more about the different ways farmers are implementing the CSA model across the country through the CSA Innovation Network.
