CSA

Just picked up my first CSA (Community Sponsored Agriculture) box today. If you are not familiar you pay per week for a box of fresh produce. It is picked when the produce is at its peak, so you get the best of the best. Of course you pay even if it is a bad week, but than good weeks you get much more also. So it is kind of helping out the small farmers so you can benefit when the harvest is bountiful.
Two kinds of Fresh lettuce, peas, spring onions, herbs, toured the farm and am excited to see what comes in next.

If you have not explored CSA or visited your local farmers markets or roadside stands they are the best place to get the freshest produce.

Eating in season from the land in your area is the healthiest and most nutritious way to nourish you body.

Think how much healthier you could be in a year if you eat this way. The taste is unbelievable fresh and sweet.

If you are close to Cairo, just east on Lincoln Hwy is a fairly new farmers market. They have a booth at Bluffton Farmers Market and Stacy is also an excellent baker if you need any fresh bake goods.
