Want to support a farmer? Join a CSA!
Community Supported Agriculture programs are a great way to support local farms in Northeast Ohio. Here's how they work: at the beginning of the season you pay a farmer for a full season's worth of local food and in exchange you receive a weekly share of what's freshly harvested on the farm. These days many CSA programs include not only fresh vegetables but fruit, eggs and meat as well. With over 30 CSAs in Northeast Ohio you're sure to find one that fits your needs.
Learn more about local CSAs and sign up today!
