A DELICIOUS IDEA<\/strong><\/p>\n

Farm boxes, also called Community Supported Agriculture (CSAs), are an excellent way to benefit local farmers. Your subscription or \u201cshare\u201d in the harvest ensures your kitchen is well stocked with peak-season, nutrient-dense food. But most importantly, when you subscribe to a CSA, you help <\/span>guarantee ethical farming practices <\/span><\/i>and sustained income for farm partners. In fact, according to Farmers\u2019 Market Coalition, \u201cGrowers selling locally create 13 full-time jobs per $1 million in revenue earned.\u201d Farmers\u2019 markets deliver value for consumers, local economies, and our environment. <\/span>Sign-up for your CSA online<\/span><\/a> or at your local farmers market.<\/span><\/p>\n
