What the heck is a CSA?


I asked that question at one point too. Its community supported agriculture. Ie: you pay a set price, a certain price for half share, and a certain price for whole share, and pay upfront. The CSA uses the money to start and tend veggies/fruits, and every week when done, you pick them up! Everyone gets the same amount of whats ready that week. Most are organic, or use no pesticides, and some grow heirloom varieties of veggies. Ours is at http://www.earthliteracy.org/, you can also google it and find one near you. This is a great way to have your kids know where their food comes from, and most encourage you to bring them along...
