Community Supported Agriculture is a farm or association of multiple farms that offers regular (usually weekly) deliveries of locally-grown farm products during one or more harvest seasons on a subscription or membership basis. You have access to a selected share or range of farm products offered by a single local farm or group of farmers based on partial or total advance payment of a subscription or membership fee. On many farms you are welcome to participate in the life of the farm - through workdays and celebrations.
