Community Supported Agriculture is a new movement which connects consumers directly to farmers. All product is picked and packed directly from the ground, tree or chicken the day before (or morning) that it arrives. By prepaying for your share you are helping small regional farmers continue to farm their land. And helping yourself make healthier choices every day.
