Community Supported Agriculture

 
 

CSA stands for Community Supported Agriculture.  CSA are relatively new to our Western Massachusetts communities but the idea of a CSA has its origin back in in the 1960’s in the countries of Switzerland, Germany, and Japan.  With the reduction of farm land, consumers voiced concern about the quality of the produce and the point of origin of the produce they were consuming.  CSA provided a local distribution of produce with a guarantee of quality and freshness.  


When you become a member of a CSA here in Western Massachusetts, you form a relationship with those of us who grow your food, and in return we commit to raising your food with sustainable and environmentally responsible practices.  You can be certain that your food is grown locally, handled minimally, not shipped from across the country or even across the world. 


As a member of a CSA you will receive a weekly share of vegetables and fruits while also agreeing to the risks and benefits that come with farming.  A growing season can bring an abundance of produce, but on occasion it can have less than ideal conditions.  We, the CSA grower will do our best to provide you with the best crop possible for any given season.  You in return share the harvest.
