Bounty of the First CSA Box

Here's what we got in the (Community-Supported Agriculture) CSA box last week :
Potting Soil
Red Lettuce
Sunflower Sprouts
Kolrabi
Rhubarb
Radishes
Green Onions
Lavender Plant
Asparagus

Pretty good for one week!

For those of you who are not familiar with CSAs, it's a way to boost your local economy by buying produce from a local farmer. You get the opportunity to KNOW the person who grows your food. If it's a bad season, you also share in that. Best of all, it greatly cuts down on the travel time for this food. This organic farm is only about 40 miles from my house, not 2,000 miles to California, or more to Chile. It does make a difference.

CSAs : Think globally ; Act locally.
