What is a CSA. Community Supported Agricuolture is a method of connecting consumers with local farms. By using this method consumers can have access to fresh locally grown produce. Other benefits include: Maintaining a sense of community, encouraging land stewardship, honoring the knowledge and experience of  growers on small to medium farms, as well as supporting the local economy. A relationship between consumers and farmers allows food dollars to go directly to the farm in exchange for a share of thr harvest throughout the growing season. CSA bridges the gap betwen people and their source of food.

To sign up for a weekly box of organic produce for the 2005 season please call us at 423-784-3401, or email us at:

Community members sign up and purchase their shares, either in one lump sum before the seeds are sown in early spring, or in several installments throughout the growing season. Production expenses are guaranteed and the farmer starts receiving income as soon as the work begins. In return for their investment, CSA members receive a weekly box of fresh organic produce from late spring through early fall.
