CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) is a relationship of mutual support and commitment between a local farmer and community members. Members commit to the farm by paying an up-front membership fee in the spring, and in turn receive a weekly share of the farm’s fresh produce. CSA is a mutually beneficial relationship in which a farm supports the community’s needs for fresh, nutritious food, and community support allows a farmer to devote his/her energies toward farming sustainably.
