CSA stands for community supported agriculture.
It means people, like you, buy direct from farmers in order to get premium produce exclusively reserved and hand-picked for you before being made available to anyone else.
A CSA program ensures that small farms can keep doing their small farm thing and families can keep receiving local, in-season, quality food grown right in their own city limits.
If you know there’s a difference between homegrown tomatoes and grocery store tomatoes, a CSA is probably right up your ally. Partnering with local growers gives you access to a higher calibre product (did you know the amount of minerals in the soil dictate how many minerals end up in your carrot?) while you put your hard earned money back into your own local economy.
