Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) is a way of purchasing food that helps build a sustainable local food system in the process. By sharing some of the risk, the work, and the commitment with the farmers, you are helping us take great steps forward in rebuilding that system here in the Charlotte region. Know Your Farms handles the marketing, administration, and delivery of the CSA shares so that the farmers can focus on growing the food. Here's what you need to know about the 2010 CSA program.
