CSA from Groundwork Organics Farm

We got so much food this year!
Community-supported agriculture (CSA) is a relatively new socio-economic model of farming and food distribution. A CSA consists of a community of individuals who pledge support to a farm operation so that the farmland becomes, either legally or spiritually, the community’s farm, with the growers and consumers providing mutual support and sharing the risks and benefits of food production. CSA’s focus is usually on a system of weekly delivery or pick-up of vegetables and fruit, sometimes dairy products and meat. The term CSA is mostly used in the USA, but a variety of similar production and economic sub-systems are in use worldwide. wiki

Week 3, 20, 23, 25 were either picked up by a family member, or donated to food-for-lane-county. Week 28 was picked up as our final box, but unfortunately I didn’t get a photo before it was unpacked and divided up.
2008 CSA is over! Whatever shall we do! I can’t wait for Spring 2009!
Thank you so much Gabe & Sophie!

Ooooo, I really like the layout (and content of course, a man after my own heart) of your blog! We have quite a bit in common (a love for photographing CSA boxes and puppies, recently joined Ravelry, ok, I guess that’s it). But I will definitely continue reading, good luck with your new etsy shop!
I just wanted to thank you for the beautiful pictures! They helped me decide to do CSA with Groundwork Organics this year.
That is awesome Kae! You won’t be disappointed. And thanks for the kind words!
