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: Harmony Farm, Bialis Farm, J&A Farm, Lupinski Farm, Walter Rogowski Farm, Midsummer Farm, Royal Acres Farm.
