CSA

CSA, which stands for Community Supported Agriculture, allows city residents to have access to fresh produce grown by a regional farmer. CSA members purchase a “share” of produce from a local farm before the harvest season. Shares of produce are brought to the same site for members to pick up each week. By joining a CSA, members learn what foods are in season in the North East, support small, local farmers, discover new varieties of produce, try out new recipes, eat healthier, and reconnect with their food.

For the 2012 summer season (June – August), we will be offering vegetable, fruit, meat, milk, egg, juice, bread, grain/bean/flour, and artisanal Brooklyn shares.  For product info and share costs, see our Summer CSA page.

Enough of all this nonsense.  Signup for the 2012 Summer Season before shares are sold out!
