What
is a CSA? CSA is Community Supported Agriculture.
Members (that’s you) pay for a share of the season’s
harvest and contribute a few working hours. Your direct connection
to the farm guarantees you the freshest possible produce.
The farmers (that’s us) receive working capital in the
spring when we need it most. Together, we share the risks
and the bounty of the season. This partnership supports the
local economy, promotes the local food supply, preserves our
open space and builds community in the Berkshires.
Farm
& Farmers
Laura Meister worked part-time at small farms all over New
England with her farm-dog-in-training, Emma Bean, before founding
Farm Girl Farm, which she works with an amazing crew of farmgirls
and farmboys. She is also co-producer of local cult classic,
Sweet Soil:
Local Farmers and the Berkshire Coop Market. This land
has been in agriculture for generations—as a family
farm, cornfield, horse pasture, and now Farm Girl Farm.
