CSA Farm Information It’s that time of the year again when we start thinking of spring planting and fresh produce! One way to get that produce is through a share in a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) farm. There is a poster on the bulletin board in the church foyer. It gives contact information for the over two-dozen CSA farms serving our Twin Cities region alone. By purchasing a share you receive a weekly delivery of fresh, organic produce into the fall. For more information about CSA farms, or to view or order a 2006 CSA directory, go online at http://www.landstewardshipproject.org/csa.html or contact the Land Stewardship Project at 651-653-0618. |
