With warm weather approaching now is the time to sign up for a CSA share.
Community Supported Agriculture is an, alternative, locally-based way to purchase fresh food. CSA members join and pay the farm at the beginning of the season and receive a weekly share of fresh produce throughout the harvest months. Becoming a member of a CSA is a great way to eat clean, fresh, local food on a budget and to support local agriculture at the same time.
Take a look at these Hudson Valley Bounty members offering CSA shares in your area: Monkshood, Community Supported Garden, The Farm at Miller's Crossing, Threshold Farm, The Berry Patch, Hand Hollow Farm, Hawthorne Valley Farm, Katchkie Farm, Little Seeds Garden
