Community supported agriculture and aquaculture, CSAs, are an easy way for consumers to buy local, seasonal food directly from farmers, fishermen and other producers/harvesters! Check out this video to learn more. Below you’ll find a list of area businesses that offer a variety of CSA options to community members like you. Some CSAs are set up as credit to use at farmers’ markets, while others offer home or office delivery of boxes each week, or on farm pickup. Some are year round and some are seasonal. Each CSA program operates differently so please click the links below to learn more and find what works for you.
If you are a farmer or fisherman and would like us to add your information to this list, please contact us!
