Tips On CSA's

Community Supported Agriculture or CSA, is a lot more difficult than one would think. You have to be fully dedicated to your CSA. How to Choose a CSA gives helpful hints on what to do when finding a CSA. You have to be willing to go through all the hardships and successes the farmers go through; meaning some years might not produce as much produce as the next. Before you join a CSA you should cook your own meals, be able to handle the excess produce, be open to new vegetables, and accept the possible risks. When you have answered these questions and they point you in the direction of a CSA start researching. Find CSA's near you, ask questions about farmers, workers, techniques, and produce. Don't go into this blindfolded. More links are listed on the website given above. If you don't think you are willing to be committed in this CSA relationship, don't be upset. Buy food from your local farmer's market. There is always an alternative to eat healthy.

  1. Good points! I subscribe to a CSA online, but I haven't yet made that ultimate commitment. The summer would be a better time. Thanks for the info...
