devoted to CSAs – join send e-mail message to listproc AT prairienet.org stating
"subscribe csa-L (your e-mail address though this one has been pretty
quiet. I’d advise you search Yahoo Groups for others. While you are waiting for the book, look
at http://www.biodynamics.com/csa.html http://www.wilson.edu/wilson/asp/content.asp?id=804 This UMass site has a list of resources: http://www.umassvegetable.org/food_farming_systems/csa/resources.html I did a small CSA with boxes taken into
town 2 years and quit for a year. Now I do a larger CSA with distributions at
the farm. I lay out essentially a farmstand and tell them how much of what they
can take (8 items off the cuke/yellow squash/zucchini/patty pan table) –
it gives them choice. They love it and so do I. Beth Spaugh Farm Fresh Food Club CSA - http://rhomestead.com Garden fresh vegetables, organically grown,
