Community Supported Agriculture: fresh food delivered to your house!
CSAs are owned by share holders that make a payment in the early spring, and in return they get weekly deliveries of veggies, fruits, flowers and herbs.
CSAs are growing in popularity nation wide but they are especially prevalent in the Northeast, West Coast and North Central Regions.
Is Maysville ready for a CSA? It would require at least 20 people.
Maysville now has 2 working Organic Farms and numerous other growers that are willing and able to work with consumers to provide farm fresh direct sales.
Contact csa@strodesrun.com or your local extension office.
