CSA stands for "Community Supp...Hey thanks! <br /><br />CSA stands for "Community Supported Agriculture". We signed up last summer for the first time and LOVE it. One farm in our area started doing one over the winter, which is not as bountiful as the summer harvest but still good. <br /><br />Basically you sign up with a local farm, pay them up front in one or two payments for the whole season (in the summer the season runs 22-26 weeks), and each week they give you a box of produce - a nice variety of all the different crops they are harvesting that week. I love it because I know I'm directly supporting a local business and I like knowing that my food didn't have to travel hundreds or thousands of miles to get to me.<br /><br />It works out to about $16 a week and it's already put together for you to take home - even quicker than the Saturday market, which sometimes I hate going to because it's so crowded and I never know what to buy. This way it's decided for me and so all I have to do is put it in the fridge and plan my weekly menu around it.<br /><br />I went to this website to find a farm to sign up with: http://www.localharvest.org/csa/Robynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10559650778096857126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3982335203469100115.post-78876184369264341032010-02-07T17:26:56.242-08:002010-02-07T17:26:56.242-08:00I really like reading your thought process of your...I really like reading your thought process of your cooking.
