CSA

Big Agra’s stranglehold over our food supply is only as powerful as our own reluctance to source food differently. The Community Supported Agriculture movement has grown rapidly over the past decade, as people seek to find local, healthy, and often less expensive alternatives to what is available on the supermarket shelves. These resources should help you find – or start – a CSA or other local food cooperative with farmers near you.
