Try this out:
http://www.csafarms.org/csafarms0656231.asp look through the CSA Training Manual Chapters and the click on "Appendix E: Planting Guides 100 kb"
They have a PDF of one of the sections of the manual that has a good per person break down rather than you standard 100ft = Xlbs or 1 Acre = YLbs.
The direct link to the file is here:

I do not do CSA's so I may not be the best source of information, but I found the above link fairly interesting.

Hi all
I'm in my second year of a CSA and I'm having a problem deciding how much to plant of each crop. Last year we did ok, but sometimes not every share had the same thing or the same quanity. Thats fine but I'd like to do better.
I've seen a list somwhere that gave suggestions on plants per person, but I cannot find it. Has anyone seen such a list?
How do you decide on quanity for CSA'S?
Any input would be great!
Thanks
Have Fun
