What
is Community Supported Agriculture(CSA)?
CSA
is a system in which consumers purchase produce in advance,
directly from the local farmer - securing the market,
thus bringing together community members, farmers, and
agriculture land to create a more intimate and healthy
relationship between people and the source of their
food. You know where your food comes from, eat in harmony
with the seasons - enjoying a balanced and varied diet
of fresh local produce. Your yearly pre-season purchase
is a reservation & commitment of a limited share harvest,
that enables the farmer to have funds for supplies,
seeds, soil, labor, fuel, etc., and to be able to plan
for the harvest based on the community.
Crème
de la Crop offers two types of certified organic produce
shares; "Standard Market" and "Epicurean". Each is available
as a full share or half share. A full share typically
satisfies the needs of two vegetarians or four people
on a mixed diet. Your weekly share will contain an assortment
of farm-fresh, ripe produce, herbs and edible flowers.
We also offer a Squash/Storage Vegetable Harvest Plan.
