Whats a CSA?
CSA = Community Supported Agriculture. You buy a ‘subscription’ to a farm and get a box of produce every week. It’s great for you because you get THE FRESHEST produce that can possibly be had. You might as well bite a tomato right off the vine. It’s great for the farmer because they know they have someone to sell their produce to, and there is no middleman to jack up the price and skim off the farmer’s profits.
CSA stands for community supported agriculture and operates on a subscription basis. Buying a share in a CSA means that you get a seasonal variety of fresh, delicious fruits, herbs and vegetables throughout the growing season. It also means that Touch the Earth Farm is able to produce these crops by receiving share payments up front, enabling us to buy the best quality seeds, bulbs, and organic growing materials. Perhaps the biggest benefits of CSAs are the mutual cooperation and community they create by bringing people together. To learn more about Touch the Earth CSA visit our CSA information page.
