CSA stands for community supported agriculture. Your subscription to this program helps support agriculture in your community. The percentage of your grocery bill you spend on this program stays in this community. By keeping agriculture profitable and viable land stays in farms instead of being densely developed. The quality of life and our environment is preserved. We are proud to offer several quality CSA programs.
