The CSA Weekly Basket

The weekly basket from each farm is, of course, different for each farm and the contents of the basket will differ each week (whatever is ripe goes into your basket). No, you don’t get to choose what you get - but, this is sort of cool; some of the produce that you get may be items which you might never purchase otherwise – this leads to questions and revelations like “What do I do with it?”, “Ah, Found a Recipe!”, “Wow – it’s actually Pretty Good!”, and the “I feel sort of dopey for ignoring this vegetable or fruit all of my life”. Okay, so this doesn’t always happen. But it definitely does happen. - Jack

Farmer's Markets & CSAs

Farmers' Markets are your best source for the freshest and most flavorful produce. Some small farms also offer something called a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) program. What is a CSA? Your family subscribes for a period of time and receives a weekly basket of produce (see below, right). Some CSA farms deliver, many just have a drop off point or two. Some allow, ask or require you to help out in some way.
