CSA Boxes:

A community-supported agriculture farm box is the ideal subscription for vegetarians and those who are interested in learning about food sustainability. Not only do members receive a box full of fresh, seasonal veggies every month - but they also become connected to the food and earth by learning about farming and how food is grown, and in some cases, how weather can affect crop growth. (It will become apparent based on what you receive in your monthly box). It's also a great way to experiment with produce you’ve never tried before!
